Does not explain why the navigation in Foliate does not work with an epub3 file. Foliate problem?
Thanks
That is correct. The toc.ncx file in an epub3 is for backwards compatibility if you open the book on an epub2 device.

If you have tested it with another epub renderer, it's likely a Foliate problem. Have you posted on the issues section on it's GitHub page?

Personally, I've been using Thorium as an epub reader with Linux.
