Maybe have multiple independent google IDs for activities you want to do? So if you do YouTube videos and android apps, don’t do them on the same google ID, so an accidental account suspension in one doesn’t affect the other.

That typically doesn't work. Google antifraud detects and groups these "related" accounts, so they potentially could suspend them all at once.
