This is clearly a bug, not a feature. I don't know anything about snap, what I did was to just upgrade my Ubuntu from 19.04 and 19.10 and suddenly even file saving did not work. I used a hidden folder as a mount point because *I want it to be hidden*, and I created a non-hidden soft link into somewhere inside: lrwxrwxrwx 1 michael michael 20 Oct 23 2018 server -> .server/home/ michael I just opened the soft link "server" as in the past and it suddenly pops out "permission denied" which I'm sure that I have the appropriate permissions to the folder involved as I can open the folder in other apps. Your so-called "solution" is not a solution for me because I don't want to have another visible folder to make my home folder clumsy. I'm using Google Chrome (the one provided by Google) as a workaround until a "proper fix" arrives.

This didn't happen at Ubuntu 19.04. Steps to reproduce: 1. Use sshfs to mount a sftp folder on an empty folder inside my home drive (e.g. ~/.server) 2. Create a soft link in the home folder to a folder inside the mounted sftp file system (e.g. ~/server > .server/home/michael ) 3. Open chromium 4. Download a file 5. Enter that folder in the file dialog Expected result: I can enter the folder Actual result: It says permission denied ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 19.10 Package: chromium-browser 77.0.3865.120-0ubuntu1~snap1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.3.0-19.20-generic 5.3.1 Uname: Linux 5.3.0-19-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu8 Architecture: amd64 CurrentDesktop: KDE DRM.card1-HDMI-A-1: enabled: disabled dpms: Off status: disconnected edid-base64: modes: DRM.card1-VGA-1: enabled: enabled dpms: On status: connected edid-base64: AP///////wBBDGbAJEYAAA8WAQNuMx14LspFpFZLnCUSUFS9SwDRwLMAlQCBgJUPAQEBAQEBAjqAGHE4LUBYLEUA/R4RAAAeAAAA/wBVSEIxMjE1MDE3OTU2AAAA/ABQaGlsaXBzIDIzNENMAAAA/QA4TB5TEQAKICAgICAgAHs= modes: 1920x1080 1680x1050 1280x1024 1280x1024 1440x900 1440x900 1024x768 1024x768 800x600 800x600 640x480 640x480 640x480 640x480 720x400 Date: Mon Oct 28 10:14:27 2019 DiskUsage: Filesystem Type Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/mapper/vg0-root ext4 230G 190G 29G 87% / tmpfs tmpfs 7.8G 165M 7.6G 3% /dev/shm /dev/mapper/vg0-root ext4 230G 190G 29G 87% / InstallationDate: Installed on 2016-10-03 (1119 days ago) InstallationMedia: Kubuntu 16.04.1 LTS "Xenial Xerus" - Release amd64 (20160719) MachineType: ASUS All Series ProcKernelCmdLine: BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-5.3.0-19-generic root=/dev/mapper/vg0-root ro quiet splash resume=/dev/vg0/swap vt.handoff=7 Snap.ChromeDriverVersion: ChromeDriver 78.0.3904.70 (edb9c9f3de0247fd912a77b7f6cae7447f6d3ad5-refs/branch-heads/3904@{#800}) Snap.ChromiumVersion: Chromium 78.0.3904.70 snap SourcePackage: chromium-browser UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to eoan on 2019-10-25 (2 days ago) dmi.bios.date: 08/13/2014 dmi.bios.vendor: American Megatrends Inc. dmi.bios.version: 2105 dmi.board.asset.tag: To be filled by O.E.M. dmi.board.name: H81M-E dmi.board.vendor: ASUSTeK COMPUTER INC. dmi.board.version: Rev X.0x dmi.chassis.asset.tag: Asset-1234567890 dmi.chassis.type: 3 dmi.chassis.vendor: Chassis Manufacture dmi.chassis.version: Chassis Version dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnAmericanMegatrendsInc.:bvr2105:bd08/13/2014:svnASUS:pnAllSeries:pvrSystemVersion:rvnASUSTeKCOMPUTERINC.:rnH81M-E:rvrRevX.0x:cvnChassisManufacture:ct3:cvrChassisVersion: dmi.product.family: ASUS MB dmi.product.name: All Series dmi.product.sku: All dmi.product.version: System Version dmi.sys.vendor: ASUS To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/chromium-browser/+bug/1850088/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
