I was getting the same issue (OS = Arch Linux). I'd also installed the dot net sdk and Rider from Snap. I had to:

  1. Remove Rider using snapd remove rider
  2. Install dotnet-sdk using sudo pacman -S dotnet-sdk
  3. Install mono using sudo pacman -S mono
  4. Download and install the Jetbrains Toolbox app and install Rider from there

In my case I found that my virtual machine did not have Mono installed. Killing and restarting the Rider process and selecting another project type prompted me to install mono using this URL: https://www.mono-project.com/download/stable/#download-lin-debian

With Mono installed I had to restart Rider once more before it would let me create an empty solution without hanging.

I was able to bypass this problem by choosing ASP.NET Web Application instead of Empty Solution.
