The removable-media interface allows access to drives mounted under /media and /mnt. If you can change your mount point to be under one of those two places, and provided you manually connect the interface (sudo snap connect chromium:removable-media), you should be fine. Please confirm whether this works around the problem for you.
** Tags added: snap ** Summary changed: - snap does not have access to softlinked folders in home directory + [snap] no access to softlinked folders in home directory -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to chromium-browser in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1849072 Title: [snap] no access to softlinked folders in home directory Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: How my home filesystem works -> ~/Downloads is soft linked to a large non-ssd drive zfs mounted as /zfs/Downloads (mainly as I download quite a bit of crap, and it would fill up the ssd eventually.) now chromium can't see this, either to view files, or save/open files. chromium is my primary browser - regular updates etc.. on ubuntu, no google magic in it. I'm not sure if this is fixable with the snap transition? But it is a bit of a gotcha for users.
