This issue is with your distro version. What happens if you download Firefox from Mozilla and set it as default? https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/all/#product-desktop-release Just download, unzip, and run firefox-bin from the folder.

Will I need to uninstall firefox beforehand? The one installed by default on Lubuntu is a snap.

No, you will not need to uninstall. I run multiple versions on all laptops from the Downloads folder. see screenshot
