I'm fed up with gmail requiring an "app-specific" password for Outlook. Not some crusty old 2007 version, the 2021 LTSC version.
Doesn't require an app-specific password from its own app on android, oh no.
That's because Outlook doesn't support Gmail's authentication mechanism. Has nothing to do with favouritism. The app-specific password is a workaround offered by Gmail for legacy apps.
