I just downloaded Minecraft Java Edition yesterday but it the game wont let me play on any online server at all. Every time I try to join a server it says "Failed to log in: The authentication servers are currently down for maintenance." Even though the servers are not down.

I tried making multiple mojang accounts before but they never let me log in on the website also would I need to purchase minecraft again on a different account?
See MC-207896. Do not buy Minecraft again as it would still use a Microsoft account.
