I don't share your experience wrt apps and root checks at all. Only once in a blue moon do I encounter an app that does this, and when they do it's just a good reason not to use it.

In the rest of the cases, say games, the basic root hiding of magisk/kernelsu do wonders, and since recently w/ kernelsu the safetynet bypass comes out of the box. Of course, I avoid relying on this for anything I can't go without.

That said, a big part of this experience might be related to how I primarily run applications from F-Droid these days. The free software app ecosystem is absolutely massive and very mature compared to when I first went gapps-less around 2015, to the point it's rare for me to use anything from the android market at all.
