Happened to me twice in a row so far on my Nintendo Switch on 1.19.20. After the two occurrences I have only rejoined once more, but that time nothing went wrong.
The first time:
My inventory was probably fully empty or had an item or two before it happened
I respawned at world spawn, with nothing as if I had never joined (This might be because my inventory was already empty), whereas I have joined many times before without issue
My skin changed back to a default (Alex) (This has happened before though, so probably not related)
The second time:
My inventory was filled to the brim before it happened
I respawned in a Nether portal, nowhere near world spawn (which by my intuition seems weird, since the issue is caused by a new player folder, right? How does it remember my location but not my items then?)
I had simply joined my friends world
It was survival and the difficulty was either easy or peaceful
