It means that Android is no longer suitable for my own private dev projects.

If it's for your own projects, for yourself only, ADB still works without this verification.
True, although using adb requires the use of the usb port, which for some of my projects is highly impractical.
Also, with this move, Google has made it very clear that they don't want people to have any real control over their machines -- so I'm not inclined to think that using adb to work around the problem will always be possible.
It's fine, though. My hobby projects will continue into the future, just probably without using Android.
I didn't think a usb port was required since the introduction of wifi adb?

You can use GrapheneOS or LineageOS without the Google rootkit and continue installing any apps you want
Considering both Graphene and Lineage have been complaining about google making development harder and harder for how long will that be a possibility?
My devices are not supported by either of those, sadly.
