ok, i wasnt sure if it was already fixed or being fixed
it just loads and then it says failed to connect to my microsoft account even though my wifi is perfect. i went on minecraft dungeons just to check out if the wifi was fine and minecraft dungeons signed me in easy. i'm not sure what's wrong but i'm pretty sure minecraft has another sign-in bug
yes, i checked in 1.17.11 today. the bug is still there. sorry it took me a while to comment
