All mobs despawn

All mobs despawn in my world. Even named, tamed, damaged and bred mobs despawn. My friends horse with diamond horse arnour and a saddle despawned. My pet sheep named jeb_ also despawned, the sheep was even attached with a lead to a fence, and the only thing left is the lead on the fence. The villagers that me and my friend cured also despawned. Basically everything despawns.

I have encountered this problem a few months ago but didn't report his early on because I thought someone else would have already reported this but it still hasn't been fixed. I hope Mojang can fix this soon and good luck with the creation of the 1.18 update.
