I found my 7th gen iPod Touch running 15.8.2. This device is no longer supported by Apple so I can’t Sign in with Apple ID to do anything useful. Any ideas of how I can save this device from becoming e-waste? I was trying to add Delta emulator to use it for roms but no luck.

Any ideas/suggestions?? πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

Try turning off Advanced Data Protection for iCloud on a new device: https://support.apple.com/en-us/108756

Instead of reducing your iCloud security across all your devices and services which is a bad idea, I might recommend opening a second free iCloud account just for use with the iPod.
