Since it doesn't say you were kicked, I would say that this is a desync issue.

MP is peer-to-peer connection so it boils down to your connection and the end-point connection merging.
If your or their internet has a few flutters it may not connect properly even if you have great internet.
The hosts hardware/bandwidth may not be optimal and they might not know it.
The incorrect connection/ bandwidth/hardware support can cause desync which causes a lost connection.

When you search for games, try to search for near or mid range ones. Not far, or worldwide.

when I first bought the game in late 2023 I never had the issue, and then I quit for a few months and couldn’t play multiplayer anymore because of that problem, some servers let me play longer than others; but none let me stay connected for over 5 minutes

They just push the issue off onto their customers and will never take accountability and actually fix it

Someone was telling me something about the epic / steam cross play had the server locations inaccurate which could lead to some issues like that, even when I set it to near/ mid I always get into foreign servers

Ok so one thing that is super common if for your ISP to have their own restrictions on your NAT type which is hidden and may be different to what you see when you test it. Also one thing that may cause issues is depending on if you have a static or dynamic ip. Australia found this out the hard way as the whole NBN (national broadband network) uses a dynamic ip and well everyone has no option but to use the NBN as that’s out internet lol
