Contacts on Big Sur just doesn't work. I go to add a Card, and while lion the middle of editing it, it disappears. Nowhere to be found. How is it even possible that such a horrible bug exists?
Mac mini 2018 or later
Give this a try: boot into Safe Mode according to How to use safe mode on your Mac and test to see if the problem persists. Reboot normally and test again.
NOTE: Safe Mode boot can take up to 3 - 5 minutes as it's doing the following;
• Verifies your startup disk and attempts to repair directory issues, if needed
• Loads only required kernel extensions (prevents 3rd party kernel/extensions from loading)
• Prevents Startup Items and Login Items from opening automatically
• Disables user-installed fonts
• Deletes font caches, kernel cache, and other system cache files

No, the card just disappears and is nowhere to be found.

Possibly because very few people experience it.
Years ago, people using a Gmail contacts account had similar problems. I don't know if that is still an issue. I think it was caused by Gmail trying to sync the contact before it was completed. Maybe that happens with other types of accounts.
I have never experienced it with iCloud.
Is the partially completed contact card at the bottom of the list. That's where they ended up in the gmail issue I noted.
Why can't I add a card in Contacts?
