How different is the answer's OS allowed to be?

I sometimes see Windows answers which are removed because they are not helpful to Ubuntu users, even Mac answers, but what about answers that explain how to do something on Mint (and it is clear that they are using Mint)? Or what about Elementary OS? Or Kali Linux? Are only Ubuntu answers allowed or are answers like this allowed too (by the way that answer doesn't actually work for me, so it's possibly just a Kali Linux thing)?

Is it just favourable that they are for Ubuntu and not for another Linux distribution? Or does it depend on the answer and whether it is unhelpful because they are not using Ubuntu? Or are they not allowed at all?

I would like for someone to set this straight as I'm really not sure where to draw the line.
