Cypress never get past loading screen on Ubuntu

I have created a new React project using
npx create-react-app virtual-office

I then installed a few things like styled-components, react-test-library etc

I then installed cypress with
yarn add -D cypress

When I try running cypress from the project directory with the command
./node_modules/.bin/cypress open

The cypress window opens but the spinner stays up and doesn't load any further. Cypress with loading spinner Running cypress with the debugger turned on it looks like it can find the browser (see the end of the question for the output of the debugger). If I run cypress with the following command I get the same error
yarn run cypress open -b /usr/local/bin/chromium

I can open the Chromium browser with the command
/usr/local/bin/chromium
The version of Chromium is 81.0.4044.92

The command ls -la /usr/local/bin/c* gives the result
lrwxrwxrwx 2 root root 13 Apr 16 10:45 /usr/local/bin/chromium -> /usr/bin/snap

I have also run the commands

node_modules/.bin/cypress cache clear
node_modules/.bin/cypress install
node_modules/.bin/cypress open

And I get the same issue, the Cypress window opens, but no content loads.
What am I doing wrong?

Here are the logs from running the command
DEBUG=cypress:* yarn run cypress open -b /usr/local/bin/chromium &> cypress.log

yarn run v1.21.1

NOTE: if the X11 server is NOT working, Cypress will exit without explanation,
  see https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/4034

This is an issue with Cypress on Ubuntu when Chromium is installed via snap as documented here: https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/7020

There will be a release of Cypress in the future to address the issue, so watch the GitHub issue for any updates.

Workaround:

Install Chromium via apt instead (apt install chromium-browser)

Current answer

The problem is solved in Cypress 4.4.1, so if possible, just upgrade. Otherwise see the old answers

Old answers

It is an issue using chromium installed via snap on ubuntu: https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/issues/7020

According to the issue this bug has been patched, so it should be fixed from the next Cypress release, so hopefully this will be over from 4.4.1.

Workaround that doesn't require changes in packages:

Change the path for the command until the patch is on npm:

For fish shells:

env PATH="/home/rohdef/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin /usr/bin:/sbin:/bin" nom run ...

for bash and similar:

PATH="/home/rohdef/.local/bin:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin /usr/bin:/sbin:/bin" npm run ...

Make sure to adjust the path for your system, so start by doing echo $PATH and ensure that you don't leave important things out, and make sure not to have /snap/bin in your path

Workaround by installing Chromium via apt (doesn't work in 19.10)

This only works on older than 19.10, since in 19.10 apt just installs Chromium using snap

sudo snap remove chromium
sudo apt install chromium-browser

Workaround using this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~saiarcot895/+archive/ubuntu/chromium-dev I have not tested it yet

Workaround by upgrading chromium (sporadic success)

$ sudo snap save chromium # optional, backup
$ sudo snap switch --beta chromium
$ sudo snap refresh chromium

Workaround don't have chromium

Another solution is to uninstall chromium all together.
