Greenlight won't start from Steam

I can launch the Greenlight AppImage fine in desktop mode when Steam is not involved, just clicking on the AppImage.

But it won't ever start when added as a Non-Steam Game. Neither in desktop mode nor in game mode.

This works fine on a real Steam Deck and worked for me on Bazzite when I last tried it in January, so I believe it's a Bazzite specific issue.

(I know that some Greenlight users had problems on Steam Deck which is solved by adding --no-sandbox as a launch option, this didn't help at all on Bazzite.)
Solution
Installing the AppImage with Gear Lever, then adding the installed AppImage as a non Steam Game, and finally turning off Steam Overlay for the game, resolved this.

Neither of these steps was enough on its own, I had to do it all.

Hopefully this will help others.
