Postman fails to start

I'm unable since today to start the Postman application that I installed using snap.
I've been running it since years now and it won't start anymore.
I tried starting it from the terminal and it gives me this error +a large stack trace with references to ERR: Display.cpp:1083 ...

A JavaScript error occurred in the main process
Uncaught Exception:
Error: /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.28' not found (required by /snap/postman/362/usr/share/postman/resources/app/node_modules/native_modules/build/Release/pty.node)

I've already run sudo apt update and sudo apt upgrade as well as sudo apt install libc6, but it says it's the latest version. It's running on Ubuntu 22.04.5 LTS.
