I fixed this moving the config:

mv $HOME/.config/chromium/*
$HOME/snap/chromium/current/.config/chromium/

Title:
  upgrate to snapd wipes out all user settings

Status in chromium-browser package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Ubuntu 19.10.  apt-get upgrade.  I'm warned that chromium from now on 
required snapd and will only be implemented as snap packages.  I complete the 
upgrade, start chromium-browser and
  - config settings are gone
  - bookmarks are gone
  - history is gone
  - languages are gone
  - addons are gone
  - extensions are gone
  - saved passwords are gone

  Maybe it's as simple as moving some directory in my $HOME to a new
  location, but since this is a snapd I worry that I'd have to pull
  apart the snap package to insert things like dictionaries, and repeat
  this effort every time snapd updates the package (which it does
  silently! I'd only know if the software breaks!)
