Bookmarks Problems - Various


I'm having issues with saved passwords and bookmarks in Zoom, and chrome particularly. I use half a dozen meetings regularly, but my main box has amnesia. I do have an elderly laptop that doesn't have amnesia, so I rsync'ed over the ~/.zoom directories, but no luck there. I did likewise with the ~/.config/chromium directories. I'm using Slackware64-current & the Mate desktop.

Well, I had a go at Zoom.

I deleted ~/.zoom, ~/.config/zoom.conf, ~/.config/zoomus.conf, & /opt/zoom because I'm using the 'other linux OS' tarball. I grabbed the latest zoom (6.0.2) and tried. Lo and behold, I have a full list of all the meetings I currently sign into. I haven't signed into them since I reinstalled, but they re-emerged from who knows where. I certainly don't know where. I was hoping that if I started with a clean sheet, I could repopulate the bookmarks. Now I don't have to.

I'm using Chromium-ungoogled less. Brave actually has it's bookmarks, so I'll probably try a similar trick with Chromium-ungoogled.

EDIT: I did. It's started storing saved passwords somewhere, which was the biggest PITA.
