Truenas scale to host:

Jellyfin (alternative to movie/tv streaming services)

Navidrome (alternative to Apple Music/spotify)

Obsidian

The “-arr” services

Tailscale (to access these services outside of my house)

I hate people defending subscriptions. They are not required for anything other than insurance or something you guaranteed will keep, like phone contracts. If they need more money for content, release content packs and dlc. Online should not cost, especially if someone like Nintendo is using peer2peer or will shut down the online servers anyways at some point.

Online servers cost money.

Id rather an online game charge me a monthly subscription and give me access to all content rather than ftp with half the content in the cash shop.

I also don’t mind a subscription, if its reasonably priced and it’s easy to cancel. But you could also have one time payment and all the content plus online. Elden Ring has that for example.

I love the two sides of “It’s about the price of a cup of coffee” like they’re not referring to a 30oz premium milkshake with a shot of espresso, not a regular black coffee.

Then the

“Your generation can’t afford anything because of your coffee addiction!”

Like companies aren’t just monetizing every single last thing and telling us “you’ll own nothing and you’ll LIKE IT!”

Also the price of a coffee has gone up considerably in the last couple years

You guys are complaining about a subscription to apple and amazon ? go look how much a subscription to an Autodesk product costs ?

They aren’t comparable. Autodesk is a business product, not for consumers. The product makes you money and the price for it is a business expense and tax deductible. While subscriptions to Spotify, Netflix, etc. aren’t.
