Comment 7 for bug 1849371

The snap confinement also seems to create a number of other problems. I've also observed:

* Webmail - if I receive an attachment of certain types (libreoffice is broken; pdf is OK), then I get a "please confirm you want to allow chromium to open this file" dialog every single time.

* password manager (save passwords) is broken - it won't remember passwords I saved, nor does it remember my preference not to save the passwords for web-development on localhost, but prompts every time.

* cross site logins are broken (sign into gmail for work, and other sites that use that gmail auth just fail).

* some extensions break (e.g. the JSONViewer is silently-non-functional.)

All of these are fixed if I download and unzip the binary from here:
https://download-chromium.appspot.com/ - though it sacrifices the entire point of running a distro.

I understand the rationale for saving developer time, but this is really broken for me and my company. If it would help, we'd happily be invoiced £500 by the Ubuntu project if you could go back to the deb build - even if you chose only to ship alternate releases.
