Some of us are already doing this. My main phone is a Google Pixel 8 running LineageOS 23.2 with F-Droid, microG, and Aurora Store installed.

For things requiring Play Integrity, I picked up a $20 burner carrier-locked Motorola phone at Walmart for $30. It's WiFi-only, given that I'm never going to pay for service on it, but I can also tether it to my main phone. It's also useful for writing one-star reviews on apps that require Play Integrity to function, which is something everyone should be doing.

So it's a $30 burner phone, not $20?

Doesn't matter, it's still just $40.

I forget if it was $20 or $29.99, but in either event, it wasn't much. If you shop at Wally World regularly, you can sometimes find carrier burner phones for $10-$20, but finding them in-stock can be a bit of a challenge.
