In the new Friends UI in Minecraft Bedrock, joinable worlds from Friends of Friends no longer appear. This is a major regression from the old UI, where users could see and join mutual friends' worlds directly.
This significantly reduces multiplayer accessibility and makes it harder to find active sessions. (For example I used to get 6-10 worlds to join now only 1)
In addition, several key features from the old UI are missing:
World name is no longer shown
Version number is hidden
Player count (e.g. 2/5) is removed
Maxplayers completely removed
The joinability indicator now only shows if the player is online, not if the world is joinable
Multiplayer feels broken, worlds have fewer players, it's much harder to find active sessions, and we have no idea what we're joining due to the lack of names. We can't see the version, we don't know if the world is joinable, and we can't tell if a world is popular or not.

Hopefully this gets fixed very soon it is very annoying, and all of my friends are irritated because of this. Please fix this soon and not take a long amount of time.

I hope to add these functions as soon as possible, which will undoubtedly help players improve their game experience.

Hello, my bug report details other stuff not only friends of friends, I am just describing that friends of friends is the main feature but other stuff in the new UI is missing like:
World name is no longer shown
Version number is hidden
Player count (e.g. 2/5) is removed
Maxplayers completely removed
The joinability indicator now only shows if the player is online, not if the world is joinable
Should I make a separate bug report that details this stuff without the friends of friends part?
