<div dir="ltr">Thanks, I'll check it out. I did try to use FF in the not too distant past to change the User Agent, but it didn't seem to work as it did in Chrome/ium . . . up until recently.

Usually it's equivalent to $HOME/Downloads but since you're using the Snap (which is the only way it will be, it seems), all of the working directories are sandboxed. This is not only a [known bug][1] but it seems like one that has [little hope of being fixed][2]. This, and lots of other things were brought up in a thread on the Ubuntu Discourse regarding [the transition from Debian package to Snap package][3] in Chromium. You might want to lend your comments there, too. Regarding your ultimate issue, you [can change your User Agent on Firefox][4].
