Yes .NET 5 is supported on all platforms. It is the future of .NET Core. They dropped core because they wanted to make it clear it is the one true dotnet going forward. It actually will greatly simplify things going forward. .NET standard will no longer be necessary because there is only .NET 5 onward.
You don't "need" Newtonsoft.JSON. .NET now has a built in serializer which is much faster. But for compatability and some more advanced scenarios some people still need/prefer it.
Lastly .NET core apps (and .NET 5/6 going forward) have an option to produce a single file deployment. This includes the framework so you do not have to have it pre-installed on the target.
