When I try to join a friend's survival multiplayer world I get stuck in the "locating server" loading screen, this has been happening since 1.18.9 but now I've decided to report it as it continues happening in 1.18.10

According to my friend (The owner of the world) he can only see me in the player list of the world but not in game by itself, I don't know what could be causing this cause I was able to join normally many times but now I can't, I even deleted cache of the game and I'm still not able to join his world and he even made a copy of the world but I'm still not being able to join. I forgot to mention that other players are able to join the world so it appears that only I am having the "locating server" issue.
