My Bitwarden renewal came through this morning. It’s still $10 per year. I was about to cancel, but I thought what the heck at $10, I’ll keep it on out of principle and to show support.
I also have a tutanota encrypted email, which costs little more than pocket change over the year. I hardly use it, but it’s there.
I wondered then, if this community had any little gems to share - services they pay for that are let’s say under $30 annually. I think we can exclude VPS, since lots of people will probably have them already.
I’m going to cross post at /r/opensource too.
It’s not cheap, but I pay for Spotify because overall I’ve been pretty happy with it. It has a good selection of features, lots of content, and it works pretty well for the most part. The only real complaint that I have is that the offline mode isn’t great.
An actually cheap service that I pay for is addy.io, and even though I haven’t been using it much, so far it has been working pretty well.
I used to pay for Spotify, but they kept removing features I liked, and last time I used it, the Android app was just absolute garbage. They’re also missing alternate releases and bonus tracks on just about every album on there.
Their shuffle feature is also absolutely whack, it will play like the same 10 songs over and over from a playlist of hundreds of tracks.
Same thing here. I can’t seem to figure out how it decides what to play. Sometimes I’ll actually forget that I added certain songs to my playlist because one day Spotify will just decide to play it.
Try Deezer. Better sound quality too.
I do this but for Tidal Family because I’m a bit of a snob.
