sadly even that isn't an option for me. i spent half an hour yesterday trying to create a github account. i couldn't. my @proton.me got rejected. captchas take several painful minutes to complete. and even when I did manage to create an account (at least the page displayed a success mesage), it got disabled the instant I logged in for "TOS violation". i wish i was joking, but i literally cannot create a github account. a few years ago this would have seemed crazy. but here we are.

i'm stuck having to use google (another pain in the ass) for discovering codebases that contain specific snippets. but some repo contents (such as wikis) are not exposed at all to search engines

Take that as a hint. Make an account somewhere else. The article lists several alternatives.

having an account elsewhere won't help with the use case i mentioned

Could you make a throw away gmail or something?

[negura]

currently gmail requires that you send (yes, send) a text to them with a code in order to sign up
