Try downloading Firefox from Mozilla, unzip it, and run firefox-bin it from the folder. It's a good idea to have a separate version with your Distro version. https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release
To install with Snap look at this. https://vitux.com/4-ways-to-install-mozilla-firefox-in-ubuntu/
It Works in Ubuntu Desktop Edition.
But I need the support to install in Ubuntu Core' 22( Embedded Devices ).
While Running Firefox in UC22 get the error. Error: no DISPLAY environment variable specified.

Ubuntu Core has the mir-kiosk/ ubuntu-frame to display the UI. In the snap store I couldn't find the X.Org package. I can run the wpe-webkit in ubuntu core without any issue.
Would you please confirm, Will Firefox works in ubuntu core? If Yes, Any steps/pre-condition specific to Ubuntu Core 22
