Public bug reported:
Currently some websites like netflix.com and web.whatsapp.com does not
recognize chromium Ubuntu as chrome because of the different user agent.
We need to find a way like vivaldi to avoid such problems for casual
users.
Current snap chromium UA :
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko)
snap Chromium/80.0.3987.132 Chrome/80.0.3987.132 Safari/537.36
