Public bug reported:

I guess a developer has blacklisted it to avoid duplicate menus at the
beta period when snap and deb coexisted, but now that blacklisting isn't
needed anymore.

Steps to reproduce:

1) Install firefox.deb from the mozillateam PPA:
sudo -i
add-apt-repository ppa:mozillateam
echo 'Package: *
Pin: release o=LP-PPA-mozillateam
Pin-Priority: 1001' >/etc/apt/preferences.d/mozillateam
apt install firefox
apt purge snapd

2) At that point, no firefox menu shows up even if you reboot

3) A workaround to make it show up is to rename it:
sudo dpkg-divert --divert /usr/share/applications/firefox-diverted.desktop 
--rename /usr/share/applications/firefox.desktop
