Gurgle, Gurgle

I have a toilet on the first floor of my home that from time to time does not flush well. When it fails to do so, the water swirls and builds up but drains very slowly. As well, I hear this toilet gurgle when I drain the upstairs tub and or drain the kitchen sink. I had a person come and snake my toilet, but no fix was to be found. Could this be a result of a bad vent line, blocked or crushed main line going out to the street. Any insights and or suggestions would be helpful.
TIA
Could be a partial blockage in the main line, but would bet that it’s a venting issue or poor piping configuration. Are the waste lines exposed at the ceiling below?
Sounds like poor venting. It helps to have a big column of air to get a strong flush.
