It's making me sign up with either a phone number or a Google account ):

And you need to attach a phone number to comment anything. Are there any issues with using one of those temporary fake phone number generators?

It's just to make an account. It's not going to actually display your number. Just make a separate Google account and use that.

The Google account seems unnecessary if you're attaching a number bc you could just sign up using only the number.

Anyway, I think I'm going to stick with the account I made using a dud gmail address and cope with being unable to post or comment anything

That's not much better because you need either a Facebook account or a phone number (again) for that too ))):
