    ok so im doing a susbcription purge. Currently nine active 馃敟 My plan is to keep only what i use weekly and replace the rest, starting with my antivirus. Before i start, what alternatives have actually worked for u, and what did you regret cancelling? Im not trying to go completely free, just to stop paying for things i braely touch 馃槄 Stories of switches that went badly are just as useful as success stories. thx in advance!!

    yeahhh before cancelling anything that holds your data, export it first in an open fromat... notes as Markdown or plain text, passwords as an encrypted export, photos as orignials. lock-in is the real cost of subscirptions.

    hmm idk i still prefer subscriptions for some tools. Paying once and getting no updates for years isnt great either.
