It is not clear, you know.
What instructions did you follow?
Because for example the ones here:
https://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2022/04/how-to-install-firefox-deb-apt-ubuntu-22-04
... tell you to set the PPA to a higher priority. You seem to have
missed that step.
Personally, I use Ubuntuzilla, which has different package names and
so avoids this problem.

I've been using it for a decade or more to get Seamonkey, so ditching
the Firefox snap and installing the Mozilla Firefox build was a single
command for me:
`sudo apt-get install firefox-mozilla-build`
