Working Postfix and Gmail relay, but isnt using my own domain mail

Hi, I configured Postfix and Gmail as relayhost on my Linode following this guide https://www.linode.com/docs/guides/configure-postfix-to-send-mail-using-gmail-and-google-workspace-on-debian-or-ubuntu/. It is working but when I send a mail from my own domain, the sender is my gmail address. I would like this to be my own domain address (contact@example.com). I followed this extra tutorial https://jichu4n.com/posts/custom-domain-e-mails-with-postfix-and-gmail-the-missing-tutorial/. It seems perfect for my problem, however I can't connect to my server in step 4 via all the possible options TLS/SSL, different ports.
These are my error messages in mail.log.

@soweb New Linode accounts may have SMTP restrictions in place. If this is the case, Support can take a look at your account. The best way to do this is to open a Support ticket from Cloud Manager requesting removal of these restrictions on your Linode.
