Expected Behavior
Allow to upload files on GitHub in Ferdi from my mounted files drive using drag-and-drop.
Actual Behavior
When dragging-dropping, GitHub attempts to upload a file but says something like ‘empty file, please try again’.
Steps to reproduce
- Install & open Ferdium on a system with dual boot, where the Windows filesystem is mounted in Ubuntu.
- Open the GitHub service & start creating a new issue.
- Drag-and-drop a file into a text field.
- See error.

Additional information
Via the installation page the connections camera
and pulseaudio
are added. I believe adding the removable-media
connection would solve my problem - allowing Ferdium to access my Windows filesystem from Ubuntu. (At least - that’s a connection I have seem to have set for 0AD, in order to install plug-ins stored on the Windows filesystem.)
When trying snap connect ferdium:removable-media
I get error: snap "ferdium" has no plug named "removable-media"
. I also cannot set it via the snap permission settings:

Is this fixed?
Hi Yes, I mounted it under
/mnt
and (thanks to the change made to Ferdium earlier) I can now access the files. Navigating to files is still a bit of a pain because my special user folders (like ‘Documents’) aren’t shown in the file selection dialog. But I can live with it, and will probably improve when #200 gets addressed.
