I use GrapheneOS ony phone and a Mac with the security options as optimized as possible. For most of my emailing etc, I use Tuta and Proton. There are instances however, where having a Google account is beneficial (some apps for example won’t download from Aurora store in anonymous mode).
Is it advisable/possible to create a dummy Google account with minimal ID/credentials? And if so, what are some best practices for doing so?
Or, do I resign myself to the fact that with more control over my data, I have to sacrifice more?
I’m curious about all the people in this thread saying regarding phone numbers considering I do have an account that’s just an email alias and thats it 🤔
How old is your account? I think the phone number requirement for new signups is relatively recent.
approximately 9 months, sometime in summer of last year
