Are there any ways to avoid handing over your real phone number, besides having an extra SIM? Lots of places/services want SMS verification, but i rarely want to hand out my actual phone number.
I’ve recently been looking into mysudo. For $1 a month you can get 1 number as well as some extra stuff if you care about that.
You can use it without Google services if running GrapheneOS but it takes a second normal phone and a throwaway Google account to work. Incoming notifications don’t work but if used as a spam number that’s probably a good thing lol.

Haven’t pulled the trigger on it but seems like something I will probably set up at some point
