2. Go to Dolphin and Network
3. See Google[number]

Comment 1 Marco Parillo 2020-03-07 17:07:20 UTC
Is it possible that this is working as designed, per:
https://phabricator.kde.org/D27474

If so, is that the best work-around possible? I preferred the old way with my Google ID instead of Google[random number]

Yes.

If the name would be empty, it is set to a default string now.
Things are completely broken otherwise, see bug#414219.

Well, that broke due to some change on Google's login page.

As mentioned in https://phabricator.kde.org/D27474, the plan is to reimplement/fix fetching the username from Google though if possible.

Leaving this bug report open therefore, but changing to "wishlist".

Meanwhile (in 20.04) it is possible to manually rename the account to your likings though. ;-)
