It's not! The location of the snap directory is totally separate from where chromium's configuration is stored. ** This bug is no longer a duplicate of bug 1575053 Please move the "$HOME/snap" directory to a less obtrusive location -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of UBUNTU - AL - BR, which is subscribed to Chromium Browser. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1887804 Title: chromium-browser does not follow XDG base directory specification Status in Chromium Browser: New Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Currently Chromium does not follow the XDG base directory specification which means that the cache and configuration folder aren't properly used. This causes the issue that it's nearly impossible to properly migrate or back up Chromium configuration (between computers) and it makes for example mounting cache as tmpfs or wiping it very very difficult. I felt those both immensely when trying to migrate my home folder, gigabytes of cache in ~/snap/chromium/[id]/.config/chromium/[folder] (and ~/snap itself is also not XDG base directory specification compliant, shame!). There's also the issue that the previous configuration that is located properly, isn't migrated by the migrational package. In order to fix this bug, it would require making the snap package follow the XDG base directory specification.
