Really just curious what folks out there deem valuable enough to give money for monthly or annually. As a software engineer I have quite a few that keep me productive and I’ll list a few:

  • ChatGPT
  • Perplexity
  • Obsidian Sync
  • YouTube Premium
  • SolidGrue@lemmy.world

    Not really productivity services, but to name a couple,

    • Google One (extra storage, bonus YouTube Premium & YT Music premium)
    • MXroute for mail hosting (used to self host)
    • Amazon Prime (for the shipping, the content is a bonus for us)
    • Hulu (kid’s gotta see that ONE show… 🙄)
    • Lemmy.world (via Patron)
    • Couple of YouTube creators and app publishers I enjoy regularly (via Patreon)

    I’m considering joining Nebula because many of the creators I frequently watch on YouTube are setting up shop up over there, and I’m getting irritated with YouTube for how The Algorithm is affecting the quality and content of the infotainment channels I enjoy.

      The phone app has it’s problems at times, things like resetting to the main page, and other little nuisances, but I really like Nebula, went so far as to pay for their lifetime deal.
