There are many people running into this problem. The only workaround as far as I know is to delete the project.assets.json file from /obj/ and rebuild your project.

After some time it is broken again, does anyone know a fix by setting the correct runtime when building for a simulator?

This is a known issue with VSMac.

Here's one example: https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Assets-file-issue-on-build/10312467

Since VSMac is scheduled for imminent retirement, it won't be fixed, so I would recommend moving to VSCode instead (which doesn't seem to have this problem).
