I've used a MYOG one for 3 years now in various iterations. It never comes off my phone.
A tearshape on a tab piece of Xpac fastened to a grosgrain lanyard by way of a few Kam snaps and posted through the charging slot of my phone case. I use a few because one can come undone too easily and drop the phone.
A bit of thin duck tape stops it slowly working its way out and the Xpac is thin enough to still allow the charging cable in.
The Kamsnaps are great as I can quickly pop the phone off the lanyard and being plastic they don't mess the screen protector up. Anything with metal quickly causes damage I've found.

Ditch the Pixel and get a Samsung S21 Ultra. Then you can buy a case which already has an attachment for a strap or lanyard

A thin one like the top pic, plastic.

Thanks @craige and @Teepee - that looks like a great solution...perhaps even manageable with my MYOG skills 🫣
@gixer - cheers I use one of those on the bike, it's a little bulky - I should have noted that it's for quick access in a Treadlite shoulder strap pocket.
@WilliamC there will be no black pudding

We both got free cases from Samsung when we got our 21 pluses, they had a lanyard loop, I swapped mine out for a spigen case as I don't like the lump on the case, but the wife likes hers.Ditch the Pixel and get a Samsung S21 Ultra.

I'd bet there's protective cases for most phones on Amazon with lanyard loops/connectors

They tend to be bulky.
I like the idea of using the port cut outs - it never occurred to my non Edward de Bono mind

Dcf tape sticks great to tpu cases. I stuck a mitten hook on back of of my phone case for the hammock ridgeline.

If you've got money burning a hole in your pocket, Moment cases have a fitting for attaching a strap. I'm not sure I'd be keen on the magnetic properties, though.
