Thans for the report Albert.
The fact that chromium is now a strictly confined snap means that you cannot use /home/albert/.config/google-chrome as your profile directory.

The profile directory has to be under /home/albert/snap/chromium/{common,current}/.
The default value is $HOME/snap/chromium/common/chromium/.

Note that you can import an existing profile by copying it over to the default profile directory, or wherever you want under a path that is readable and writeable by the snap, and pointing chromium to it using --user-data-dir as usual.
