Hi,
Have you noticed that the snap version of Firefox in Ubuntu cannot access
/tmp?
See
https://forum.snapcraft.io/t/firefox-snap-no-access-to-gvfs-and-tmp/27253
As far as I understand, alpine copies attached html files to /tmp, and I
have not
found an easy way to change this (although I can work around it with a
small script).
Can can this issue be handled within alpine i a simple way?
Best wishes,

Try using Linux Mint instead of Ubuntu.
... or the Firefox built by Mozilla for Debian and Ubuntu:
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-firefox-linux?utm_source=www.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_campaign=firefox-download-thanks#w_install-firefox-deb-package-for-debian-based-distributions
I have been using the .tar.* builds which have an option in "help"
to update themselves.
I also see that Mozilla now offer a Debian/Ubuntu repo,
though apt seems to choose the snap version over the mozilla one,
even after
sudo apt install firefox/mozilla
