Aside from the VPS and object storage for housing Leminal Space, just Proton Mail. And The Anfield Wrap if we're counting podcasts.

Pcloud, NordVPN, Tidal, reMarkable sync
I'd use Obsidian Sync too if I used Obsidian across devices. I just back my vaults up in the cloud.
Spotify but only because we are all sharing a family plan and the price makes sense at that point for the convenience.
As soon as Spotify gets rid of family plans and account sharing (just like all other streaming platforms) I’ll sail the seas with Lidarr.

1Pass NordVpn ChatGPT YouTube Premium
Surfshark VPN and YouTube premium. Recently cancelled Netflix and Amazon prime. Not much but I've had enough of subscriptions.
Bitwarden
Proton Family
Spotify Family
Nintendo online
1 small Contabo VPS to host rocket chat
1 larger Contabo VPS for my main Nextcloud and Immich instances
- Bitwarden
- Addy.io
- Backblaze B2 (technically not a subscription)
- Managed Nextcloud (Hetzner)
- Webhosting (Hetzner)
I'm a student and I don't work that much so I try to keep the costs down. I considered selfhosting Nextcloud but it doesn't seem worth it for now.
How do I webhost with Hetzner? I want to get into server hosting and Hetzner is a small business with a good price, but the learning curve is so steep.
I give some bucks to disroot for email and cloud services and I donate monthly to a local server that hosts a mastodon instance and some other goodies. I occasionally donate to some software projects
My partner subscribes to media services which I use too, like max, Spotify and others.
spotify, NextDNS, 1password, lifetime pcloud, Microsoft 365 on annual sales, notesnook. I guess I donate to my mastodon/Lemmy instance and immich development.
Mullvad and Tuta are the only services I pay for monthly
YouTube music only, unfortunately. Unfortunate not because it's the only expense of its type that I have, but because like so many Google products it's a worse version of something they used to offer for free. And there isn't a good alternative that I've found yet, and no music streaming service pays the artists anything worth mentioning.
ProtonMail and Spotify. I'm also paying for one podcast but I do it voluntarily.
Edit: and Mullvad
