I fear this is the consequence of an announced google chrome/chromium
change, and will not be changed (in fact the API is being removed in the
not too distant future and this is just the start of the the changes
announced with
https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2020/12/chrome-88-deps-rems)
@guiverc It may indeed be deprecations and removals, which sucks. I just
think that 88 isn't the first version with the problem, it's 89.
* snap 1497 is chromium 88 and works fine.
* snap 1506 is chromium 89 has the issue.
* chrome 89 on Linux works fine.
I've just downloaded and installed Chromi
BTW even if this is deprecation and removal, this is severely broken: It

This is an unfortunate consequence of a decision by Google to restrict
access to the sync API to Chrome only (which explains why in comment #3
you're seeing that chrome 89 on linux works fine).
There's a lengthy discussion with details here:

Doesn't forcing deletion of the profile violate this claim?

I agree the statement is a bit ambiguous, but I *think* it's meant as
"data that is stored locally only (and not synced) will continue to be

For personal accounts nothing is lost from what I can see so far, all
data is transferred to a blank profile.
My god, though, this could surely have been handled better. Not even a
banner inside chromium to let us know like what I think happened with
Windows Xp.

If the profile is managed, it seems that local data is deleted - at
least it becomes unusable, so it might as well be deleted. If that is
avoidable, it would be good to do so. I can understand why you would
want to delete the local data associated with a managed profile in some
circumstances, but
I am a happy user of the Ubuntu systems "account online" service happy, so

it makes me think that between now and March 15 we could all be left on foot

I am using Chromium on an arm64 operating system.
I've been dealing with this problem for a few days.
Yesterday I restored a backup image from December, all my passwords and other
information on Chromium have been restored. I was thinking that I lost all the
information on my account, but with th
As I stated in comment #8, reverting to an older version won't be
working after the 15th of March, when Google will stop providing access
to the sync API. And running an old version of a browser with known
security vulnerabilities is never a good idea.
