After trying these commands:
sudo apt install flatpak
flatpak permission-set webextensions org.keepassxc.keepassxc_browser snap.firefox yes
the extension in firefox still does not work.
I don’t really understand enough about snap except that it keeps causing me difficulties time and time again. I do not know how to proceed. Do I need to wait for updates or should I try migrating my firefox back to a normal version?
The keepassxc-snap-helper.sh script also tells me “Sorry, browsers installed as snaps are not supported at this time”.
Edit - I’ll try this https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2022/07/ubuntu-devs-fix-another-frustrating-firefox-snap-flaw
Update: still nope when using firefox beta 106.0b4-1
Edit2:
I never ever get any popup asking me anything. These instructions do not hold: https://www.bentasker.co.uk/posts/blog/general/enabling-nativemessaging-for-keepassxc-on-ubuntus-snap-firefox.html
When I disable all extensions but keepassxc I still get:

even when using firefox snap beta.
I even tried manually creating the file snap/firefox/common/.mozilla/native-messaging-hosts/org.keepassxc.keepassxc_browser.json and watching the debug output for the extension, but nothing changes. It doesn’t work… and what really frustrates me about this is how opaque everything is when using snaps… I just can’t figure out where something is failing!
