One thing I can think of is setting up a VM just to run BlueStacks or whatever android emulator is best these days (it’s been like 5 years since I’ve tried that out). Or do like I do with whatsapp and run a Firefox container specifically for groupme
Yeah second this depending if youre in the us and your phone supports dual sim or esim, the cheapest prepaid plan is like 5$ a month with tello for unlimited text just use fake info
Red pocket on eBay. 30 bucks for a year of service with 200 minutes 1000 texts and some data every month. Cheapest i’ve found, but i’d love it if someone showed me something cheaper.
Sadly dont think you can buy locally from a store but only through their website, they’ll deliever to the address that you put so maybe use someone else’s and just pick it up like a friend’s or family member’s. Think they also do esim but im not 100% but if they do that would be emailed so no waiting
