> Change the folder it's confined to.
As I explained earlier it's a security feature implemented by snapd, the
chromium snap doesn't get to choose where its data is stored. I just
found bug #1575053 which looks very similar to your issue, so I'm going
to mark it as duplicate, and I encourage you to read all the comments to
understand the rationale.
> No, not really. The profile folder contains gigabytes of cache files.
You're right, it does contain cache data. That would be an upstream bug,
can you please file it at
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/entry ?
** Changed in: chromium-browser (Ubuntu)
Status: Confirmed => New

Please move the "$HOME/snap" directory to a less obtrusive location
