I'll just copy-paste the commands I used to get it to work and provide them with some commentary when needed; these are found at the very end of this comment. I'll be using Distrobox instead of Toolbx as it suits my needs better. * mkdir ~/Desktop/Distrobox/Obsidian : [1] * distrobox create --image registry.fedoraproject.org/fedora-toolbox:37 --name Obsidian --home ~/Desktop/Distrobox/Obsidian : [2] * distrobox enter Obsidian * sudo dnf upgrade * sudo dnf install fuse-libs fuse nss atk at-spi2-atk cups-libs gtk3 : [3] * cd /home/user/Downloads/ * chmod +x Obsidian-1.3.5.AppImage : [4] * ./Obsidian-1.3.5.AppImage

This hasn't been for nought as even openSUSE's Aeon (and all their immutable offerings) ship Distrobox instead. Vanilla OS also ships Distrobox instead of Toolbx. Heck, even the folks over on uBlue\1]) always mention Toolbx with Distrobox and vice versa. And it wouldn't surprise me if most of them prefer to use Distrobox instead.
