It's weirdly hidden but if you go to meet.google.com and make a meeting, others just need the url to join, no faffing about with connecting to other users in gmail. It needs a corporate gmail account to use though.

Needs a Corp account to setup and approve non-invited attendees.

You do not require a google account at all to join a Meets session, but someone in the session with a valid invite will have to approve your entry.

I test this quite often with incognito tabs to have multiple participants for room setup and testing.
