Can't login to gmail accounts anymore
As of a few weeks ago (after maybe a month or more of no use) I can no longer log into my gmail accounts via Thunderbird. It now pops up a dialogue window asking me to enter credentials to my google account. See attached image. After I enter my email and click "Next", nothing happens. Nothing happens if I click any of the links on the page. I assume it is using an instance firefox? So I disabled NoScript and uBlock on ff just in case that was causing problems. I've also tried with thunderbird started in safe mode. None of this works. I should point out, none of my google passwords have changed. I can still access the accounts fine via webmail and different email clients on other devices.
Any idea what's going on?

I have this problem, also for a few weeks, but have v52.5.2 (32-bit) - the latest.
