Description

I am using the latest version of MicroG 0.27 and it has the most annoying behaviour to continuously request access to other Google accounts on my device apart from the one that I actually use for YouTube.
I have around 4 Google accounts on my device and I have linked one of those accounts. But then I get requested atleast 5 times in a day to link the other 3 accounts even when I click deny on request.

How can I stop this?

Research direction

The issue names no source file, test, or entry point. Start by reproducing the repeated account-link permission prompts with multiple Google accounts on MicroG 0.27, then trace the relevant account or permission flow; done means the unwanted prompts stop without breaking the intentionally linked account.
