Is It actually Impossible to get XMR without KYC?

I keep running into the same problem when trying to get Monero without giving up my identity. I know Haveno exists and I understand how it works, but the security deposit requirement makes it frustrating when you are starting from zero. Needing around 0.1 XMR just to participate means you already have to source Monero from somewhere else, which defeats the purpose if every on ramp asks for KYC.

At this point it feels like a loop where you need XMR to get XMR, unless you are willing to mine it or already know someone who can send you some. I am trying to avoid handing over my social or identity documents just to get a small amount. Is there realistically any way left to obtain XMR without KYC, or is mining or peer to peer the only option now?
