For example, it cannot change files in standard folders ~/bin or ~/.local or ~/.config, or standard files such as ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile. Even "sudo -H gedit /etc/fstab" doesn't work. As there is a bug in the non-snap versions [1], the snap version is important, but sadly it is unusable for a certain number of cases. I understand that the only solution is to make gedit available in classic confinement. Please would you do this.
