iCloud, Spotify family, Bitwarden password manager

Criterion channel, and proton VPN+email

I pay like 10/year for my domain name.

I also have Spotify (I know it’s a shit service but I don’t have the time to collect all the new music I want to listen to as it comes out).

I pay 3/month for f1tv as well which lets you watch replays all the way back to the 80s.

so in total maybe 15/month towards subscriptions.

Apparently theres is some Lemmy x Dropout overlap but there is no community exist here currently.

My subscription:
Dropout.
Various domain, mostly 10$ a year.
Purely mail. For well, email.
Kagi. Search engine.
Mangaplus. For weekly Shueisha manga.

Planning to get backblaze for backup.

I split a YouTube sub with my ex for my daughter. I use it for music anyway. Other than that I paid for Netflix last summer and canceled. I paid for a year of crunchyroll but I won’t renew it. TBH I never subscribe I just buy one service for like 6 months or a year and move on.

Despite our complete homelab setup my wife still pays for a few streaming services. Couldn’t be more than $45. Still to much. Have you guys heard Linux unplugged’s IPTV episode they just published? Shit is wild.

One. Usenet access.

I have a lifetime subscription to an NZB indexing site I paid for many years ago, that was well worth the money. You never know if they’ll stick around, though.

(I refuse to name names, because the minute you say what service you use, someone tells you to try something else, or how dumb you are for using that site, when this other site… blah, blah, blah.)

I have a lifetime subscription to Plex, that I got many years ago, when Plex was good. I haven’t used Plex in over five years.

Until recently, I was getting Netflix through T-Mobile. It was “free” when I signed up, but then they started passing on the price increases. I dropped it because I so rarely used it.

I used to have Spotify but they kept increasing the price and the app was so bloated and frustrating to use just trying to listen to my local music. Ripped all the songs with zotify and now I use musicolet as my player

For my own personal use, I pay one domain at about 12$/year.

Then there’s stuff my job pays.

VPN, Spotify, 2 video services.

Tailscale mesh networking / vpn, mullvad vpn, tuta email.

Paid media I get from the high seas and advert free with ublock

VPN, Usenet indexer and server subscriptions, plus youtube premium for the music service.

My only 2 online paid services are Hulu (love watching Bob’s burgers) and ring for a security camera I was gifted when I purchased my home. 25$ a month covers both!

12 € per year for my email provider.

I rather donate for software projects that I find useful for me. I donate towards the fediverse foundation for covering server costs for my home instance, and (irregularly) for open source software that I use myself, like VLC player or LocalSend. This time I wanted to donate to FreeTube, because I used it very often in the past year, but unfortunately they only recieve Bitcoins. I don’t have a wallet, nor want to create one just for this.
