Can't sync Reminders to Devices

I can't sync Reminders from iCloud to My iPhone XS (14.4.2) or Macbook Air (M1, Monterey 12.1)

I can see the tasks when I open https://www.icloud.com/reminders/ but it doesn't sync on either of my devices.

I've tried:

Restarting
Turning Reminders off and back on from iCloud settings
Signing off and back on iCloud account
Reinstalling the Reminders app
Syncing with one of the devices off
Syncing with another network (including mobile data)
Adding a list and a reminder then turning Reminders back on from iCloud

Even when I open with iCloud, the list is shown empty for a couple of seconds and only then I can see the contents

When I open the storage management pane from iCloud I can see that data from Reminders still exists and takes up space

The problem kind of solved itself yesterday, if anyone else has no way to solve this, the best thing to do is let developers know that the problem exists (report your problem in https://www.apple.com/feedback/), use something else in the meantime and wait a week or two.

If you are using mobile data , check how much data storage is provided by them Use cellular data on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support

View or change cellular data settings on iPhone - Apple Support

Connect iPhone to the internet - Apple Support

None of those helped, but I found out it kind of works with mobile data but slowly (takes a minute). Also in my home network the changes I make on both devices show up in icloud.com, but they still don't sync with each other
