Microsoft account won't connect to Minecraft services on Minecraft: Java Edition Launcher

Whenever I open the Minecraft launcher signed in as my Microsoft account which is my only account it will show me a message that says: "Oh no! Something went wrong, and we couldn't connect to Minecraft Services" and the Play button is replaced with a Play offline button but once I click that to play offline, it will say I need to make a profile even though I have a profile and have been playing the game until this error occurred. But once I click to create a profile, it will sign me into the Minecraft website and bring me to my account profile screen where it will give me the message: "Something went wrong... press reload to try again." and once I click reload, nothing changes. this error happened on Friday, May 28th.

    I gave it a try again last night while i was updating servers to 18.2 . still a no go. Im using t launcher (still uses Microsoft authentication) highly recommended workaround! takes a moment to put in your credentials. Since I"ve received no replies from support Xbox,Microsoft,Mojang I can only assume its a known issue and ill give it another go after the next version of the launcher is released. The fact that i can still authenticate with my new Microsoft login means either the launcher is bugged or there is some kind of xbox thing that im not doing .... but i really have mashed all the buttons i can find

    This is why I no longer support Microsoft.
