Same. In the last few years (2-3 probably, I don't count) I don't think I have given it out anywhere. I just pretend to not have a phone number, and if people think that's weird I don't care, deal with it. Nowadays if a service requires my phone number, I don't need that service. Or in rare cases I'll try to find a free online number for receiving a code, but that's the only alternative I take.
