Ah, I only saw one : LyX-2.3.6.2+qt5-12-x86_64-cocoa.dmg, a
the other is supposed for older systems (and 10.15 is not that old but well I can give it a try)

I see, mine was shipped with 10.15 and I did not upgrade because I am
using fink (hm I have to see whether fink ships lyx, but most likely it
will be older)

Ok I will first some  more testing and then if it does not help I send
you the report.
