The  more investment into the servers you need,  which they were always going to be reluctant to do.  It's money

Of course, I'm not denying there's an issue. Why would have paste the monitoring page with the warning if not ?

Check my free MSFS sceneries : https://flightsim.to/profile/vbazillio/trending and my hardware configuration.

In FS2020 I'm already getting real weather and photoscenery.

Or in the case of the internet in general it could be something out of Microsofts control causing issues, as we've had before when there were Cyber Attacks on other areas but the knock on affected Azure Servers which MSFS relies on. (not saying that is the case here, just an example)
