Version v2023.12.18.00 just hangs on mac

[LorandP]

Context:
We are trying to run watchman in react-native but our build is stuck at 97%.
We have installed watchman using brew.

Problem
At some point, watchman throws this error:[cli] unable to talk to your watchman on /opt/homebrew/var/run/watchman/user_profile/sock! (No such file or directory)
If navigate to that directory, we find that there is a sock file.

The following commands just hang: watchman --foreground, watchman watch-dell-all, watchman watch project_root_directory

What we tried:
We reinstalled watchman
We have given permission to that folder by running chmod 0700 /opt/homebrew/var/run/watchman/user_profile
We also tried removing the pid as suggested here #671 (comment)
We installed version 2022.11.07.00 from source

System:
Macbook Pro M1
MacOS: Sonoma
node: 21
