I am another victim, I started getting this error out of the blue a couple weeks ago. Everything had been working fine previously; my son could login via Microsoft and play online with his brother and cousin in the same world. Now I get code:Drowned after every attempt to sign in via Microsoft, and I have one kid who can't play with his brother and cousin. What's the deal with this bug? Years worth of reporting and no solution? All of the troubleshooting steps suggested by Minecraft support are useless (check internet, close and restart software, switch) and they finally just sent me here, which is essentially saying "oh well I guess you're screwed". This is incredibly frustrating and not at all what I would expect from support for a login issue. It seems they haven't bothered looking into it and don't mind having all of us wasting time trying to fix it on our own. Come on, man!
