I have had to turn on "allow less secure apps" in order to use Thunderbird with Gmail
Surely Mozilla could redesign Thunderbird so that Google does not regard it as insecure, or liaise with Google to resolve this issue? As a blind computer user who relies on Thunderbird, this has been a huge nuisance.

If the authentication method on the incoming and outgoing servers is OAuth2, it isn't necessary to enable access by less-secure apps. Set the correct authentication, remove the passwords from Saved Passwords in Preferences/Privacy & Security, and in the same section accept cookies, then restart TB, and enter the account password in the OAuth window to allow access.
