Easier way to associate FreeTube with original YouTube (data)

[tobaloke]

The Android 'versions' of these types of apps, that act as a 'premium' (NO ads) customizable front-end to things like YouTube & YouTube Music, utilize a patch called 'MicroG' -- it tweaks to Google YouTube login process to be usable by all types of applications that require Google authentication.
Rather than export/import GIGS of data, and not be able to have FreeTube history/usage flow with any other YouTube-related app, here's a very simple example of how to implement using a tool like MicroG to truly 'synchronize' desired dats of any/all apps involved (and the best part... Google is none the wiser):

Be Signed In To Google Account On Another Device(PC Easiest)
Launch *(FreeTube, et al.) On Device
Settings > Accounts > Sign in
A Code Will Popup On Your TV Device
Go To https://youtube.com/activate On Signed In Device
Enter Code Exactly As Seen
Follow/Execute All Prompts On Screen
New Device Will Now Be Activated!

Sorry, I'm not a developer or I'd do this myself! I just know they must be a similarly easy, uncomplicated, & complete way of achieving this.

As already mentioned in other threads we will not be adding support for logging into YouTube accounts inside FreeTube.
