 Description   

Before 1.16.2, when I went to join a server in Minecraft on my Switch (not the featured ones, a dedicated server), I was able to join it just fine. After the update, whenever I try to join it, my game freezes, and when I try to close the game on the switch home screen, my console freezes. The game has even froze on the main menu and when I tried to get into the settings. It seems at least for the game is unstable after this update, at least for the Nintendo Switch version. I have tried this multiple times and the game has frozen every time, and the entire console has frozen most of the time.Β

Β I’m having the exact same issue since the update. There was another claim for this exact issue and it says it’s been resolved, but I’m still having the issue even after redownloading the software multiple times. Please fix
