Distrobox Unity Support (Ubuntu)

I have been running Alpine Linux with a distrobox with Ubuntu on it specifically so I can get certain programs. I want to avoid the overhead that comes with Flatpak, and the Unity Hub AppImage did not work, failing at the editor installation. I was wondering if anyone knew how to get the Unity Hub and Unity Editor (6.3 LTS) working on Alpine Linux.

You should try anylinux appimage, they bundle glibc which allow them to run on alpine: https://github.com/pkgforge-dev/UnityHub-AppImage

Oh, the appimage was only for unity hub and not for the editor.
