Infinitely stuck "Connecting to server" when trying to open a place (specifically on Team Create)

When I attempt to open up the game on Roblox Studio, it becomes stuck at “Connecting to server” then eventually after a while, I get a Team Create connection error 279. This happens to ANY Team Create game (only using Team Create), EVEN if it’s my own game or I’m the group owner of a group’s game.
However, if it’s File > New or the place does not use Team Create, I can publish it and edit it. However, if the place is on Team Create, it just does not open.
No beta features.


Steps I took to try to solve

  1. Restart MacOS
  2. Disabling VPN and Firewall
  3. Restart MacOS
  4. Uninstalled Roblox Studio, destroyed all preference and log folders, installed Roblox Studio
  5. I switch from WiFi to Hotspot and Hotspot to WiFi a lot. But all of these steps, I did it in a Hotspot. And I tried opening Roblox Studio on Hotspot as well.
