Apps uninstalling themselves? (lemmings.world)

I'm running Ubuntu, and every once in a while, I boot up my PC and some app is missing that was there previously. Last night I shut down my computer, and this morning Firefox was missing. I lost all my browsing history, cookies, bookmarks, extensions, etc.

This has happened several times before. Does anyone know what's going on? I know I'm not personally removing any of these apps. Is there something I could be doing unknowingly to do this?

Could an update have removed it? Although it seems strange that it would affect your home directory.

Do you sleepwalk?

    That's what I'm wondering. What did I do that would cause it to go away? I was using Firefox last night just before I shut it down for the night, and the next time I booted it was gone.
