Uhhh, I believe Gmail is using it. And, from many usenet posts,
it ain't going well there, either -- at least not for *nix users.
I use something Google calls 'app passwords' to do email using Alpine

you get a special password to use and so far no problems.
(sometimes the old pw I had set works.)
the uni I'm associated with uses Google but they haven't introduced
OAuth there yet. not sure how it works if you have limited
