Ask Lemmy
A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, and toxicity are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.
If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.
Reminder: The terms of service apply here too.

MullvadVPN, Posteo, Bitwarden, Hetzner VPS, Hetzner Storage Box, Porkbun domain
ProtonMail, Nebula, Backblaze, Parcel, BigNews, Glass, my local paper, local coffee delivery.
I pay for Apple iCloud too but I'm trying to figure out how to get away from it.
Mullvad VPN!
I have a subscription to natural gas I really get a lot out of
Mullvad.
A daily newspaper, a monthly computer science paper, internet, electricity, water, gas. That's probably it.
I pay monthly to a local makerspace. Its worth every cent.
Is that like a shared work space?
A gym membership, my mail account (mailbox.org) and Spotify.
Apple One+
Music, TV, Games, and 50GB storage for $10/month via Verizon.
Trade coffee. I enjoy trying new coffees. And it's easy to pause the service if I'm traveling a lot and picking up coffees on my own.
Prime video
Max. Better than Netflix any day.
- Spotify: yes, you can download and set up your own music but spotify has a bunch of integrations that just work without any effort. I'm also using a student subscription (that will probably keep working forever) so it's not very expensive.
- Mobile contract: mobile data is expensive compared to other countries but at least my current ISP has coverage everywhere. Too bad everything else about the company sucks.
If you can get 5 people for the Apple One Family plan, it's worth it.
- Apple Music
- Apple TV+
- Apple Arcade
- iCloud+
Logseq sync, need it for work, and its only £3.74 (5 cows for the Americans). Tried proton VPN plus as well, too expensive for me being £8.38, but its fine because their free tier is generous and I can do video calls with plus aswell. Food is also a good subscription, you can find food shops everywhere with great variety, but the price of the overall spend is higher, but if you buy high volume low cost food you can combat this price increase; some people like to spend extra and add alcohol to their subscription, but i don't see the appeal unless its liquor shots like Apple sour or Baileys, because they taste good.
- Bitwarden
- Proton Mail/VPN
- Kagi
I'm still paying for kagi because I hope they succeed, but my god the results are fucking dogshit most of the time, especially if your two languages are French and English but you don't live in NA
Also WTF is the rating at the side of the results? If I put it down is that my rating for that site for any search, or my rating for that site for this particular search?
Can't find the answer to that anywhere
Taxes. They pay fory wifes wage.
"Hello, IRS? Yes, I'd like to cancel my tax subscription, please."
With enough money you can.
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".
VPN
Apple One is expensive but my whole family uses it and the only offered service I don’t really use much is Apple News.
NextCloud hosting, since I don't trust myself to do it safely.
BitWarden, 50/50 for the value and to support them.
Tuta.io, for the custom domain and extra storage.
Addy.io (or SimpleLogin)
Nebula, if the LG app was available where I live/on my TV (yeah, the household wants to use a spytv).
Proton Unlimited, Mullvad VPN and Kagi are all great. Standard Notes is a great app, too.
I want them to give us a proton login to Standard Notes like they do with SimpleLogin.
Yeah. Notes is quite pricey for what it is. I can't imagine development is that expensive..
Spotify and DropOut for me!
