Your old profile wasn't removed along with the deb package, it should
still be in ~/.mozilla/firefox/. If you close the firefox snap, delete
~/snap/firefox/common/.mozilla/firefox then re-run the snap, it should
attempt to import the existing profiles from the deb again.
Please let us know whether this works.

Title:
Partial profile loss on upgrade from 21.04 to 21.10
Status in firefox package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
In the upgrade from 21.04 to 21.10 I noticed it had updated firefox.
When restarting some of my profile was kept (themes, addons, etc) but
I've noticed my primary window of 50+ tabs was lost. It opened 3 other
windows correctly.
I tried to find it via "recently closed tabs/windows" but it's not
showing up. I have also confirmed there are no duplicate profiles.
Silly me assumed it was done correctly and when the upgrade process
offered to remove old packages I did so I can't seem to retrieve the
old profile.
