Update: Finally I reinstalled everything without the ID and is working just fine, I'll use my personal Apple ID to download Xcode and I'm never going to create a new one again.. Thank you so much for your comments!

Wait, you need an apple ID to download xcode ?

I thought there was a quick, scriptable command-line method of downloading xcode:

  xcode-select --install
It used to be that you could download Xcode outside of the App Store, or without an Apple ID, but it seems that they have changed this.
xcode-select only installs the command-line tools, not the full IDE.
Final update: I feel like a complete idiot. As @tobiasbischoff said, a simple user swap could resolve all of this.. I hope tomorrow I can recover my lost IQ from today! ahhahaha.

PD: Apple, fix this anyway please.

Maybe consider not buying Apple again since their products refuse to allow you to live your lifestyle of separating work and personal life.
They do. I have an Apple ID for work and one for non-work.
