This is no longer just a problem of mine, because I have contacted several friends of mine who also made realm to corroborate the information.

 

For a considerable time, the system of realms has been broken and you cannot do a single one without something being wrong.

These errors come with the realm, that is to say that if you have an error in your realm and buy another one, it is most likely that that bug is no longer there, but (I guarantee it) that there is another one somewhere.

 

(All the bugs that I am going to mention below have no choice but to wait a few hours and pray that it is solved, things that sometimes do not even work like that, I have confirmed these bugs by replicating them from different devices with different Wi-Fi networks

Some of the bugs that I have come across with the realms are the following:

 

-Backups are not applied

-You can't download the world

-You can't replace the world
(The world is removed, but not replaced, so a random world is generated)

-You can't execute any command inside the realm (from / kick to just a / tell, they don't work and the reason for the syntax error is just random symbols)

-Name is not changed

-Turning off or on the realm is impossible to achieve in the first 40 attempts

-After unlocking someone from your realm and sending them the invitation, once they accept it, they are automatically blocked again, and you have to unlock them and send them the request again, and now it will work miraculously

-The realm goes back in time randomly

-Certain external texture packs cause console people to be unable to enter the realm

-The names of the texture packs included with realms+ are: adareryery% # & # rdsGdfyrt67% / fsdgdfh /% / $
(it is not a joke)

 
As you can see, the realms suck.

As I said before, these bugs not only happen to me, but to friends with different qualities of connections and different platforms, so clearly the bug is not in me or in my connection

(I and my friends are from Mexico, I say it in case it could have something to do with it)

Where I live, realms aren't especially cheap, and paying that money for a server that goes backwards, doesn't change the name, and is unable to load a backup sucks.

I have an active realm at the moment, but I can't take photos of these bugs because since I update to 1.17 the game just refuses to open, if this changes, I will edit this to add images.

Tested versions:
1.16 onwards
I haven't tested this with 1.17 for the reason above but I can't select any version other than 1.17 for some reason
