Google’s developer verification will only run on mainstream Android with play services. It’s not supposed won’t be running in standard AOSP so the easiest solution would be to switch to a custom ROM like GrapheneOS.
I don't have that choice in Denmark due to NemID.
At this point the solution seems to just be having a second phone for that kinda shit
I don't like that my neighbours are noisy, guess i should get a second house for when they're shouting
ah yes because phones are $400,000-$1,000,000+
