How To Get Rid Of Grafana?

I feel very dumb for having to ask this but I'm simply stumped.

I've got grafana running on my box. I mean when I enter http://localhost:3000 in my browser I see a grafana log in.

sudo apt-get remove grafana 

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package grafana

sudo apt-get remove grafana-enterprise

Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package grafana-enterprise

(I didn't really think I had grafana-enterprise installed).
Also tried:

sudo apt-get --purge remove grafana
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree       
Reading state information... Done
E: Unable to locate package grafana

I list everything installed via the snap store and there's no grafana. So I thought, "well if I can just disable the service so I can use localhost:3000 for another purpose--that's not ideal but it'll work"

sudo systemctl status grafana-server
Unit grafana-server.service could not be found.

sudo service grafana-server status
Unit grafana-server.service could not be found.

By the way, I see this (among other things) at the bottom of the login screen on localhost:3000

Open Source | v9.1.2 (3c13120cde)

So no doubt it's Grafana v9.1.2 OS

I know I'm missing something very dumb and obvious but for the life of me I can't figure it out. Any suggestions of other stuff to check?

You should post that as an answer @ArturMeinild! I hadn't considered that and that looks like it's the issue!

Another obvious way to get Grafana running is with Docker. This can be confirmed by running docker ps. The output could then be like something like:

CONTAINER ID   NAMES                  IMAGE                                 CREATED AT                       STATUS
5770a2561f5c   nextcloud-office       collabora/code:latest                 2023-06-13 18:42:01 +0200 CEST   Up 5 hours
9b41de5eec34   nextcloud-cloud        linuxserver/nextcloud:latest          2023-06-13 18:41:59 +0200 CEST   Up 5 hours
293e74450730   grafana                grafana/grafana-oss:latest            2023-06-13 14:03:10 +0200 CEST   Up 10 hours

Then, to remove Grafana, first stop the container, and then remove it:

docker stop grafana
docker rm grafana

Finally, it can be a good idea to remove unused Docker components once in a while. This is done with the following command:

docker system prune --all

This command will ask for confirmation and remove all components not currently in use (actually you can omit docker rm grafana if you do a prune after the container is stopped).

That's it! I feel so dumb for not having considered the possibility! Thanks again for the help!

Most people don’t grasp that asking a lot of questions unlocks learning and improves interpersonal bonding. In Alison’s studies, for example, though people could accurately recall how many questions had been asked in their conversations, they didn’t intuit the link between questions and liking. Across four studies, in which participants were engaged in conversations themselves or read transcripts of others’ conversations, people tended not to realize that question asking would influence—or had influenced—the level of amity between the conversationalists.
