At least on old reddit, you can click "next" when it asks you for your email to skip that step.

Yeah, unfortunately, it only works on old reddit. It's quite amusing to see how they treat old and new reddit as entirely different platforms.
My experience has been your account will quickly get shadowbanned if you don't provide email.
I've even used burner emails and have been shadowbanned. email-less account definitely wouldn't get traction.
This was also my experience when I tried to register a custom domain. The only thing that worked for me was using a Gmail account that I had used with other, older, accounts.
