Apparently, kde doesn't provide good enough security according to this: https://support.google.com/accounts/thread/111344249/this-app-is-blocked-this-app-tried-to-access-sensitive-info-in-your-google-account?hl=en

Online APIs are moving targets, unfortunately. Please report upstream.
Comment 2 Andreas Sturmlechner gentoo-dev 2025-01-03 17:52:40 UTC
PS: This bug failed to provide the bare minimum information required:

- emerge --info
- KDE Plasma/Frameworks/kio-gdrive versions involved

My GDrive account can be accessed just fine.
