How to receive UDP packets via a python socket in ubuntu running on digitalocean?

I’m using a simple python socket that listens on IP 0.0.0.0 via port 65333 for incoming UDP packets. To test if the script with the socket worked, two consoles were opened in the droplet and one console ran the python script with the socket and the other console send an UDP packet to the droplets official IPv4 address via netcat to port 65333.

Under these circumstances the socket receives the packet correctly, but it does not work if netcat is used with the same parameters on my laptop or another computer.

The firewall accepts all UDP packets so the packets should not be dropped.

Pinging the server is also possible from the external environment.

When I run nmap in the console on the cloud for UDP I get:

PORT STATE SERVICE

65333/udp open|filtered unknown

But when I do it on my local machine I get:

PORT STATE SERVICE

65333/udp closed unknown

So it seems like the port is both open and closed at the same time which is not possible. How do I proceed with troubleshooting from here?
