Couldn't track down the files to check the permissions, but it's a snap install so those should be set correctly. And I have tried logging out and in in my browser.
Log doesn't seem to show anything related; attached. There are a couple warnings/errors about vkd3d and wine-ge-proton failing, but I imagine that's unrelated. Also, I have installed all the packages the site says to install for Ubuntu.

Ahh, I see. I'm starting to feel that way about snaps in general.
...as I do have curl installed
I installed lutris and that seems to be working with epic. Do you know if there Is there a benefit to heroic launcher? I'm just getting back into linux gaming after a decade or so and there are a lot of options.

the benefit of using heroic is that lutris is quite broken and outdated (and heroic is not)
for example installing vkd3d-proton 2.9 in lutris doesn't work
and in heroic it does (except we don't ship it yet for some reason)
but it does work I can assure you
