Bandwidth too low - no sattelite terrain etc.
You would try msfs2020 map enhancement, you can still use the standard bing satellite maps with it. I’m not 100% sure if it will help, but being able to download the maps from a service other than MSFS might help.

Please HELP. Not loading even after fresh install !
I found a FIX ! I used the mod in the past, and even after uninstalling it MFS2020 wasnt working. I think this might be it: https://github.com/derekhe/msfs2020-map-enhancement/wiki/FAQ
- Thought i'd give google earth a try, wasn't disappointed.

Question on the clarification and recommendations for: Learning resources, regional differences and simulators?
For a sim, I prefer MSF2020 because of the real world scenery. As a VFR pilot, I can fly at my local airport and see the same home depot building where I make my base turn in real life. I have a a high end system (5900X, KP 3090) and use a Reverb G2. You can also hook in Garmin Pilot or Foreflight into either sim and use it as you would in the plane: https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff/releases/tag/v0.1.13. While the sim helps in some areas can hurt a little in others. I had reinforced some bad habits by sim flying that I'm still trying to break in real flying.

Nothing more terrifying than not seeing the runway until 200ft...
Foreflight is easy to get working. There are a couple options but I use this one because it also shows the sim traffic: https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff

I sat on the runway at KVNY for an hour, forcing Live Traffic aircraft to go around and then circle endlessly

Is there an add on where you can control or view the flight when you're away from your PC? Such as on a tablet or smartphone?
I use Airmatre connected via FS2FF

Connecting Msfs 2020 To Garmin Pilot
FYI out of all of the apps I tried FS2FF works (https://github.com/astenlund/fs2ff). Strange that it (Garmin Pilot) likes some and not others.

Recommend an app to practice instrument approaches?
You can do that with MSFS 2020 as well you just need to run another app on the side. I use fs2ff
What are some alternatives?
When comparing msfs2020-map-enhancement and fs2ff you can also consider the following projects:
msfs2020-google-map - Replace MSFS2020's bing map to google map
msfs2fltplan - Connects MSFS 2020 to the mobile FltPlan Go app
