Since 1.17 you cannot find any diamonds that easily on level 12 or 11.
Diamonds seem to generate on average at lower y-levels now, see this comment.

is the seed number
and this is the coords to the area I am at: x:431.841/ y:76.00000/ z:-467.640
Would you mind if I made the report public since it does not seem to contain any sensitive information?
Cannot confirm, there are diamonds at:
/execute in minecraft:overworld run tp @s 400.05 12.11 -459.13 802.35 53.40
/execute in minecraft:overworld run tp @s 393.74 6.88 -467.29 859.35 61.35
/execute in minecraft:overworld run tp @s 391.13 11.38 -451.24 766.95 52.50
Can you please re-check?
Edit: To simplify this you can also switch to Spectator mode, give yourself Night Vision, move to Y=12 and then repeatedly run
/fill ~-15 0 ~-15 ~15 ~ ~15 air replace #minecraft:base_stone_overworld
Relates to MC-229191.
I can confirm the issue.
Diamond Ore and Deepslate Diamond Ore is significantly rarer on Y level 11 or 12 compared to the previous version.
The new best layers are Y:5 to Y:7
