Describe the bug

When calling modrinth-app from terminal window, I get the following error:

modrinth-app: error while loading shared libraries: libssl.so.1.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

When launching app without terminal (for example, through .desktop file), nothing happens (as expected given the error)

Steps to reproduce

  1. Install the .deb package from Modrinth website
  2. On plain ubuntu 22.04, open terminal and type "modrinth-app" to attempt to launch it

Expected behavior

The app is supposed to launch

System information

OS: Ubuntu 22.04
I have OpenSSL 3.0.2 installed.

Additional context

I believe downgrading OpenSSL might solve the issue on my end, however I'm not sure about how safe is that to my system as I lack some Ubuntu knowledge.

Installing newest libssl1.1_1.1.1f-1ubuntu2.XX_amd64.deb where XX is the biggest number (20 for me) from http://nz2.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/o/openssl/?C=M;O=D does fix the issue. I'll not close this issue myself as I believe it can be fixed on app's end too, but it's solved for me personally.

@omgaXD its not recommended to install older versions of libssl, it can install security issues and/or stability issues on you computer.
