Current Mojang employee here, we moved fully onto Azure as of a few years ago AFAIK.
Some more game-oriented technologies of course have helped in the years since though.
Edit: AWS -> Azure :)

Can I have my Mojang account back?
I literally cannot log in to it after it was forcefully migrated to Microsoft. Microsoft doesn't recognize my computer as not-a-bot. Something to do with being Linux, I imagine.
Or, can I get a refund?
In the end I gave up and he plays it on an old Ubuntu laptop instead.
I think I finally managed to make it work in a new/clean Chromium browser profile.
The first time it was a throwaway account only needed for one day so I abandoned it. The second time I had to give them my phone number. Very scummy.
This was during the "Microsoft <3 Linux" campaign, and I think I cited that and then told em Minecraft would not be able to move forward with Xbox account migration until they stopped such idiocy.
Since I was the dev tasked with migrating Mojang accounts to Xbox accounts, I felt I had at least SOME credibility to my claim that it was blocking me.
But honestly, modifying my user agent was easy, it just pissed me off.
They did fix that the same day tho, so I guess the believed me!
Reminder to whomever is reading: if you bought the game during alpha, you have the right to all future Minecraft games and a premium account forever. Microsoft barely tried to uphold this by giving a free Bedrock license to alpha buyers for a limited time several years ago. I suppose you'd have to sue them now if they break it, and the judge will wonder why you bothered to bring a $20 dispute to court.
Again, this is a while ago: I remember when I started we were just starting to replace the old yggdrasil servers with the new micronaut based system which I think is still in use today?
I still remember that application fondly as the best architectured piece of software I've ever worked on. I hope all is well!
Those services and any written since then have all been .net based. Still lots of older services hanging around though :)
Did you mean Azure?
