I see the the external drive is formatted xfs; I'm not sure if xfs
supports SELinux contexts fully, so I think there are two things to try.

First, try:
# chcon -R user_u:object_r:user_home_t /home/dovydas/muzika

An "ls -lZ /home/dovydas/muzika" should then show all files having the
context set above. If not, you'll need to change a mount option instead,
adding fscontext=user_u:object_r:user_home_t, e.g. in /etc/fstab:

/dev/sda1 /home/dovydas/muzika xfs fscontext=user_u:object_r:user_home_t
0 0

Thanks Paul! I did
# chcon -R user_u:object_r:user_home_t /home/dovydas/muzika
and all files changed context to user_u:object_r:user_home_t and I can
see them via ftp, but new created files have the old context system_u:object_r:file_t. When I do MKDIR when connected via ftp, I
create that dir, but it is not visible.

How can I make my fresh created files have context user_u:object_r:user_home_t??

I'm not sure why that's happening. Newly-created files and directories are usually supposed to inherit their parent's context. You might try fedora-selinux-list for that.

A workaround you might try in the meantime would be to use the fscontext mount option as mentioned above and see if that helps.

Paul.
