**anywhere** I want to browse the full filesystem to play media from literally anywhere Now, I do understand the snaps were invented for a slightly different purpose than using snap vlc as the main video player, but some of us do. Is there any easy quick workaround to enable a snap package to browse unrestricted the whole root filesystem and any other mounted filesystems? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1643706 Title: snap apps need to be able to browse outside of user $HOME dir. for Desktop installs To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/snapd/+bug/1643706/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
