Anything else?
I did some digging and it sounds like I need fuse2 for OrcaSlicer but it looks like I already have fuse3 installed and what I found suggests that downgrading my fuse version risks breaking other packages. Is there some way to get this to work with fuse3?
Have you tried running ./OrcaSlicer_Linux_V2.1.0-alpha.AppImage --appimage-extract in the folder it's downloaded?

the webkit2gtk issue is known to occur in modern distros as well. webkit2gtk and I think one other package need to be installed manually, especially on Arch distros

The fuse error can be fixed by switching to this appimagetool as it uses the static runtime.
