~/snap/firefox/current/.config/fontconfig/fonts.conf was updated "automatically" on my mantic installation. Not sure which combo of circumstances made it happen, but I have core22 from the latest/candidate channel. Then I refreshed firefox (switched form latest/stable to latest/stable/ubuntu-23.10) so the revision was changed (from 2880 to 2851), and then when launching FF the fonts.conf file in question was updated as desired.
