Yes, indeed the stored passwords inside chromiums sqlite file are encrypted. I didn't try to decrypt those, I didn't know where the key was. After seeking there are keys in the seahorse-application (it has a title "keyring") for chromium (and also chrome separately). Another key looks like a dummy and another one seems to be the actual login and password key.
I did execute the "sudo snap connect chromium:password-manager-service" and it was executed seemingly successfully with no messages displayed on command line. (I also tried for "chromium-browser", that returns an error, so I guess the exact command was ok then.) After starting chromium-browser I'm still seeing the same message: 019/10/19 11:31:47.504721 cmd_run.go:893: WARNING: cannot start document portal: Failed to activate service 'org.freedesktop.portal.Documents': timed out (service_start_timeout=120000ms) -- 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/1848753 Title: [snap] chromium times out connecting document portal with NFS home Status in snapd: New Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in snapd package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: I have my /home folder shared via NFS from a local server one floor below in my house.
