[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2003192]
Already commented on the ubuntu bug tracker: It looks this is fixed in stable|candidate 115.3.2-2 (395) and in beta 119.0b5-1 (397) as well. How i tested: I tried on ubuntu with disconnected x11, with two users (uid 1000, uid 1001). Starting with fresh ~/snap/thunderbird dirs. For beta I also updated from a profile in use.

I cannot override the policy reviewers' decision. referring to that thread is a sensible answer; probably there should be a feature request for an auto-connection to some kind of restricted password manager (where a snap can only write and read its own passwords), which may be manually connected to one of the usual password managers if the users decide so. if what jdstrand writes is true.. > Other snaps that plugs password-manager-service also have access to chromium’s passwords. .. i think the current password manager situation (all connected snaps sharing passwords) is kind of broken.

According to the chromium documented cited, this is wrong. According to the docs, the credentials are actually stored as plain text in the chrome profile if one is not using an external password manager. And this is still true today.

Adding the link to the wayland socket still solves it. No, it is not possible to start Help > Troubleshoot Mode without the modification (because there is no UI).

This also probably means that the thunderbird snap actually never uses native wayland and falls back to xwayland (because the wayland socket can not be found). This unintended use of xwayland could be construed as a security issue, but someone who mistrusts snaps using x11 (like me) will remove the permission which leads to failure instead of a security issue. $ snap run thunderbird ## BROKEN ...

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 2003192] [NEW] thunderbird snap does not work without x11 interface connected
Public bug reported: When I disconnect the thunderbird from the x11 interface thunderbird crashes saying it can not find the wayland socket. If I add a link to the wayland socket inside the container thunderbird works fine. That is on kubuntu 22.04 in a plasma/wayland session, MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 is set on the host and in the container as well. This also probably means that the thunderbird snap actually never uses native wayland and falls back to xwayland (because the wayland socket can not be found). This unintended use of xwayland could be construed as a security issue, but someone who mistrusts snaps using x11 (like me) will remove the permission which leads to failure instead of a security issue. $ snap run thunderbird ## BROKEN ...
