I’m usually against subscription services, but there are a few I use that I think provide enough value to justify the cost. Are there subscriptions you think are worth the money for you?

    Some that I use:

    • Proton Unlimited, which gives me access to mail, storage and a VPN.
    • Linode, I have a VPN which I use for selfhosting some things.
    • Various domain names. They’re actually cheaper than you think they are.
    • Youtube Premium. I watch a lot of YouTube, and it helps creators.
    • Discord Nitro. Begrudgingly.
    • 1Password. Technically I don’t pay for this, as I get it free as part of a plan from work, but I’d probably buy it when that runs out.

    I’m kinda interested in watching streams more (to diversify my video watching habits), so am kinda curious about Twitch’s ad-free premium plan thing as well…

    Of course, there’s also donations and patreon/subscribestar/ko-fi subscriptions, but I don’t really consider those “subscription services”.
