What is a good ATC replacement software for MSFS 2020?

Join vatsim, do the introductory course…which just familiarises you with vatsim and follow the beginners tutorial.

When you file your first flightplan on vatsim, probably through simbrief, just put in the notes that it’s your first flight.

The controllers are especially helpful to new members and will guide you. Just don’t choose JFK or Heathrow for your first flight on vatsim lol.
