      Yep, kinda funny how even Apple is more lenient in this way. The only downside is that you can’t install stuff from the App Store but that’s basically a non issue.

        Yeah, for a Mac you can generally install anything you need from the devs website.

        iPhone not so much, but you don’t need an ID for that either, technically.

        They don’t make it very obvious but you can skip Apple ID sign-in during the iOS setup assistant too (unless they changed that in iOS 26)
