> At this point though, we might just be better off getting rid of that,
since the mentioned fix was released about two months ago and, because
of the snap forcing upgrades, the transition should have been done for
practically all users already.

I confirmed this. Getting rid of the notice.

Title:
  chromium snap upgrade "lost" my passwords

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  On upgrade to chromium snap revision 2333 (now since upgraded to
  2367), I received a window with a notice about password migration:

  "Password storage via the Gnome keyring has been fixed, but for it to
  work, you have to rename your old
  ~/snap/chromium/common/chromium/Default/Login Data file so that a new,
  working one can replace it."

  I don't remember if I did this or not.  However, when I went to use my
  saved passwords in chromium today, I found that they were absent.

  Tracking down the data in the chromium profile, I found that there was
  a ~/snap/chromium/common/chromium/Default/Login Data.old containing
  all of my passwords, and a
  ~/snap/chromium/common/chromium/Default/Login Data containing a single
  password entry for a site that I happened to have created a new login
  for in the past few days.

  That's not a very user-friendly experience on upgrade.
