agreed that it's best not to use gmail, but boy it is not easy to find a mail service to replace gmail/hotmail/yahoo/etc. So far the alternative seems paid protonmail, which I don't mind paying, but how long until they start doing 'funny' things like gmail et al and one has to migrate again.
Does anyone know how to make gmail play nice with K-9 or FairEmail?
Gmail keeps asking me to log in through a browser on my phone, and authorize almost every log in attempt, and not all authorizations are accepted! When I log in into my gmail account on a computer and authorize the "suspect" log ins, gmail still refuses (8/10 times) to allow use through 3rd party apps.
My experience with 3rd party email apps has been awful because of this. My conspiracy theory is that google wants to lock users into its ecosystem for continued surveillance/data gathering on users and their usage but I digress. Back to the original issue, wouldn't TB on mobile experience these same issues as K-9/Fairemail?
this is probably the better way in the long run, but freeOTP might do the trick for now!
