It's easy, use a VPN and as many fake data as you can, also you can use an AI generated profile pic, if you need a phone number you can use a virtual number like TextNow app.
Thanks, yeah I'm always on a VPN, but as you suggested, maybe nowadays it's not about trying to live without an account, but having the account with generic/fake profile data.
Yeah the point it's into giving them fake data, you keep using the service and they get fake stuff at exchange. Better than not using their service.
