Firefox (Snap) wiped clean on two machines (self.ubuntu)

To begin I'll say this is something I've noticed with Firefox, but because it's Snap-centered I think this is the place to post. I have two primary machines which recently had Firefox "wiped clean" like they were brand new installs. They also had notifications suggesting the version of Firefox was not the official way to use FF in the given operating system (Kubuntu 24.04 on both machines). It suggested using the official Debian repo instead, which I figured why not and re-installed from there (after uninstalling the Snap first).

I guess I'm asking if anyone else is experiencing this? Am I right in pointing blame at Snap or is this possibly an elsewhere issue?
