I don’t know if it was any better before Microsoft bought Minecraft, but every time I tried to log in after they turned all accounts into MS accounts, they were like “suspicious activity, account suspended.” It stopped when I gave them a phone number and turned on 2FA, but it was so annoying because it happened every single time. And their support forum was, of course, completely useless.
To giant tech corpos, lack of extra data for them to harvest is considered “suspicious”.
I know, 2fa is generally good. But fucks sake MS, lack of it isn’t because I’m “up to something” or some shit. Like, right now I have no working phone number so I can’t use that.
Much easier than trying to go through customer support tbh

They don’t let you use a time based one time password?
