I am running a fresh instaled Ubuntu 2022.04, so this is the first Firefox-from-snap.

I am a Jupyter user, and when launch the Jupyter-lab (which try read a file in ~/.local/... directory) I get the deny; I can launch it when connect to Jupyter server, which is an annoying behaviour.

I browse for help, so I change the "security.fileuri.strict_origin_policy" to false, but didn't help

I verify that Firefox let me navigate my personal folder, but deny access to hidden folders (name starting with dot). I test this behaviour by create a new directory in my personal folder (navigable) and then change the name by adding the initial dot (access denyed).

I guess this is an effect of security policies of Firefox, but how can I change this policy in a safe way?

Easiest and safest would be to use localhost with a webserver.

Thanks for the answer, but it is just what I'm doing.

The annoying part of the issue is copy&paste from the terminal the server direction&cookie; while the "normal action" is a redirect from the file whose access is now denied.

It is disappointing to see that this problem arises with this version of Firefox and that these policies are not easily customizable. It's especially painful because Firefox is my favorite browser.
