I'm curious if Entra ID will ever allow users to log in using their Microsoft accounts. The documentation appears to mention this as a possibility, but I can't seem to get it to work. Even trying to set it up manually fails because it looks like Microsoft.com is blocked as an authentication provider.
We established an external tenant to avoid mixing public users with our workforce tenant for our desktop application. However, a lot of our users already have Microsoft domain accounts, and it would be great if they could log in with those. I've heard some buzz about this feature being available earlier this year, but nothing has materialized. Has anyone found alternatives or workarounds?

You could invite users as guests instead of using the standard flow, which is a bit of a hassle but it does work for Microsoft accounts.
I saw that recommendation, but since our app will be publicly available and on the Windows Store, I'd rather offer login options through Microsoft, Google, and Facebook as well.
