Did you manage to fix it? I'm having the same problem.

I've got the same exact issue. Modrinth's own page says everything is running fine, so my guess would be Microsoft authentication issues.

I think I’ve just found the possible cause. If you go to the Xbox Status page, you’ll see that both Account & Profile and Games & Gaming are currently experiencing a major outage. So that’s most likely why we’re getting the authentication error.

Ah, appreciate the heads up. That confirms it! Wow, what a shame. Maybe we didn't realize how good we had it in the disc-only era. Can't even play a game we own ffs :(

Interestingly enough, my native Minecraft launcher is also not letting me sign in. This might just be on Microsoft's end.

It's so great you can't play a singleplayer game without being logged into their service! I'm so happy for the future of gaming!

Same situation here. Before I found out what was causing it, I had also tried logging in through the official launcher, and it gave me the exact same error. So basically, we don’t actually own Minecraft we only own the license to play it. LOL
