> Microsoft seem intent on wresting away from modders, perhaps only indirectly
What is Microsoft doing in that regard? Last I was working on Minecraft mods they did a lot to support them, such as sharing the obfuscation map or making Brigadier open-source. Have there been other developments since then?
The IAM logins seem more like a security decision to me (assumably Microsoft has requirements on how their products need to do authentication), not one to keep away modders.
