    Seems as some openssl1.1 issue(could be downloaded and dpkg -i installed or compiled) or chromium transition to snap, but Unity uses also C# and Licensing requires that.

    But also if running unityhub fails, there is still option to run Editor/version(default link missing to scripting needs :)/Unity and then unityhub runs and also Unity Editor, but simply there is some fix needed. If there is unofficial AppImage, then it needs to be made official because who know what version it is or if some debugging bug S***s it contains.

    But on other apps with chrome-sandbox in the directory with sandbox in app enabled(itch.io) I get:
    The SUID sandbox helper binary was found, but is not configured correctly. Rather than run without sandboxing I'm aborting now. You need to make sure that /home/user/.itch/app-version/chrome-sandbox is owned by root and has mode 4755


    some apps(which uses chrome with sandbox) could be run as
    chrome --no-sandbox
    at start, but seems as this new Ubuntu feature with Unprivileged user namespaces going forward will be restricted
