KDE.org Google accounts

[Ben Bonacci]

Hello Wodsfort,

I believe the Google integration is mainly for users who wish to access 
their Google Drive via Dolphin. I believe its also used for syncing 
email and contacts with KMail and sharing videos to YouTube as well.

I remember seeing a thread on Discuss that Google frequently blocks the 
sign in flow, so claiming the domain name with them and formally 
registering as a project under Google Cloud may resolve this.

And I believe the partnership with Google is just a financial 
contribution, however someone else may be able to correct me here.

Regards,

Ben
