Shaking does not affect this the way you think it does. You’ll be fine as long as you wait like 10-60 seconds after shaking vigorously. The liquid and gas pressure inside will reach equilibrium, and no matter how much shaking you do, it won’t degas further.
Also, keep in mind that it’s mostly temperature and surface area that causes soda to degas (fall out of solution).
Fun fact: this is why paper straws are inferior to paper straws for soda, because paper is insanely more porous than plastic, and causes rapid degassing of the soda inside of the straw, rather than in your mouth, throat, and stomach. (There are other reasons, too, but this one is often not considered by most people)

I don’t like the way they taste. I’m on team glass straws.

Even better, no straw. Sip it straight from the cup.

Nah, curl your tongue into a tube and such it in the drink to use as a straw

Metal straws have to have a rubber or other dielectric mouthpiece, or electrolysis sets up in the mouth and the electrical activity confuses the hell out of the taste buds.
