· Cura 4: How to install/run on Ubuntu LINUX?
I don't know about your cura 4 issue (I have ubuntu also but haven't tried cura 4 yet) but regarding printing "in front left corner" - that's a common issue and easy to fix - in the "machine settings" there is a checkbox which should be set for delta printers saying that (0,0) is in the center of the machine. You have that set but the ender3 is not a delta printer so you want (0,0) to be defined as the left front corner.
See on delta printers it tries to center the print on 0,0 and they go negative and postive X and Y values. But on "normal" printers it prints only in the positive space.
Another possibility is you have the dimensions of the build area set wrong. For example if your printer goes to 200X200 in X and Y yet the machine settings say it is only 100X100 then it will place the print towards the front left corner.

In the Cura 5.8 stable release, everyone can now tune their Z seams to look better than ever. Method series users get access to new material profiles, and the base Method model now has a printer profile, meaning the whole Method series is now supported in Cura!
