Bug Description
I'm using Ubuntu 19.10, latest Chromium(-browser) installed.
The issue is that after the switch to snap-based Chromium it started forgetting my logged in sessions very very often. This is not isolated to one online service, I have to log back in to everything I use, including Chromium itself. It also forgets any "Remember this device" checkmarks.
History, downloads or extensions however do not suffer from any data loss.

It sounds like this might be a symptom of bug #1616650 (although the claim that history isn't affected would go against this hypothesis).
Could you try enabling the experimental refresh- app-awareness flag, restart chromium, use it for a few days and comment back here whether the problem persists?
snap set core experimental. refresh- app-awareness= true
Thanks!
