[Pharos]

after 30 days trial you are forced to use an microsoft account. is there any way to bypass this?

I've been using Visual Studio for a long time and I've never encountered anything like this. Maybe you are using the professional version and not the community edition.

As other said, you're probably not using the community edition. See this link: https://visualstudio.microsoft.com/vs/community/

It's not about buying something, community edition is free anyway but it demands users to login their accounts (or register it) after some time, otherwise you will not be able even start your IDE.

I hate that behavior too, it is kind a dark patterns. Not sure about using VS offline but I am interesting this question too. (Or maybe there is more ethical IDEs for windows with same functionality?)

UPD: by the way, VS has build tools for command prompt for compilation and building I am not sure but they probably work without any internet connection, so you can use some good notepads/other IDEs and compile code with VS tools. Other question is does it have any sense?
