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

    ProtonMail, with my own domain, so that I have full control over my online identity and Spotify. As a developer I don’t need anything else, I can work just fine with freely available stuff.

      I have ProtonMail, but I’m pretty new to it. I do pay for premium (unlimited). How does the domain thing work with them? They actually host the email for the domain via MX records?

        Not the OP, but if youve got your own domain, you can register it with Proton so that you can create email addresses on it that route to your Proton inbox.

        How it’ll work is:

        • Proton will ask you to verify you own the domain (by adding a few TXT records on it)
        • then Proton will give you some MX records you can add to your domain so that mail routes to Proton using your domain.
