forge failed to start download

Yeah. It looks like it is a permissions issue.
Usually in linux you have to use chmod for modifying.
Doing ls -l should say the permissions. For example when you create a folder, you should get the following permissions by default: drwxr-xr-x

So doing chmod 644 will give it drw-r--r-- permissions. If you really don't care that anyone could read and write, you could do chmod 777 on the folder

Looks like the Launcher does not have perms for the /home/botfly/ directory

So you have to grant permission for
/home/botfly/.minecraft/

But I have no idea how this work on linux

Game crashes when initialising due to "rendering overlay" error (again)

It is a rendering mod - so start with embeddium/oculus

Not that either, it seems.

I may have to go through each mod one by one to see what's causing it. That's what I usually do when I can't tell what the issue is
