As the tittle sais, i was trying to create an instagram account and it is not possible without a phone number. Same with discord. Obviously i dont want to provide mine. Any working solutions to bypass this? not looking for alternative private service, i already use them.

In Germany and Spain and I suspect in the whole eu you have to show your id when you buy a sim and they register it to you.

Indeed. It is only really in the US where this is possible.
