I already tried Sketchfab, Clara, Thingiverse, Tinkercad, Sketchup, Turbosquid, Hum, and several others. They all don't work well for me. I need a website that is not too strict with at least fewer rules and I don't have to sign up for account which is ridiculous with most sites nowadays. I been everywhere on the internet and most sites I go to usually asks me to sign up for account just to upload models! and Sketchfab unreasonably removed ME from their site without any explanation. I want a very honest site that I can TRUST and one that's more user-friendly than all the ones I mentioned above. I would really appreciate your answer if you know a good 3D website that provides free models and allows us to share our own free 3D content without the need to sign up.
Is there a good 3D site I can share my models for free?

Define "not too strict". Are you given to swearing and insulting users, do you post possibly offensive content?
Signing up is a security measure engendered by the overall anarchy of the internet, and increasing prevalence of bots, who are as yet awful and autocratic company thanks to their generally greedy or destructive masters. Omegle demonstrated that trend quite clearly, if you've been to that place over the last 10-15 years. It's an arms race and without enforcing registration, website owners can't get the upper hand. When paying customers are at stake, they can't afford such gimmicks. Specifically, with 3D models, you're asking a website to trust you and let you upload very heavy files (and file size = $$$ in storage and download bandwidth) given precious little proof of personal integrity or skill.
In short, what you're asking for is unsustainable beyond a few months of obscurity. At best, you might find fb cross login or a minimal email confirmation.
However, you could ask for the theme of the website to be "free content". That way there are no or fewer paying customers involved, which provides less incentive for attacks and as such fewer security measures. For example, "free3d" seems to have only an email requirement (though it has introduced some paid models). Deviantart may be a good idea.
There's this list, though they seem to be quite similar to yours (and it makes sense - big companies pay for advertisements).
