It looks like yo do not have glibc 2.34 available on your system.
I'm not knowledgeable about snaps; if they rely on the glibc of the host
that seems fragile.

In the meantime, if you're interested in trying an alternative; GNU Guix
can run atop any GNU/Linux system and provides a 'jami' package,
currently at version 20240325.0.
