Locked out of macbook air M1 (No apple id or recovery key)

After using the fingerprint reader to unlock my MacBook air M1 for a couple of weeks, I forgot my password after a while. After the battery died, I had to restart the MacBook and I couldn't log in with the fingerprint reader anymore.

I entered the password many times wrong and now my account is locked.

I tried fixing it in Recovery Mode with the terminal but since I have no apple id or recovery code, I'm not able to open the terminal tab. -> unable to reset password.


Is there still anything I can do?

Thank you in advance.

MacBook Air (2020 or later)
