I don't know why but me and my 5 friends can't find any diamonds, we all have been searching for diamonds for about 3 days now, (Real time) but cannot find anything. We've been searching for caves, strip mining, mining chunk by chunk. We've basically tried everything we can think of. I've even went on creative on a different world to search for diamonds but none was found.

Does someone know why we can't find diamonds anymore? Because when 1.17 came out it feels like diamonds have gotten a lot more rare. I noticed there is a lot of annoying buys with 1.17 with the realms dont work and now the diamonds are even more rare to find. Or they might not even exist, what do I know. 

I would love if someone from Minecraft can actually take a look at the community's feedback about these bugs, cause I'm not the only on experincing this. I would appreciate this a lot.
