They integrate with a lot of payment gateways, even if Stripe isn't one of them.

Have to admit, while this is good and reassuring for accepting worldwide payments, Shopify is no good on the subscriptions front and this is very poor if your subscriptions business is digital, like a membership system.
Is Gumroad a better fit perhaps for this use case?
Gumroad looks cool, but the percentages they are taking are extortionate, not sure if they are better.

It would get to a point where I am giving thousands of pounds to Gumroad to lock myself in. How customisable is it, can it do Apple / Google Pay?

Not sure if it does mobile payments natively. Depending on your content, Ghost [1] might be another option with a more palatable cost.

In that case they still take 2% which is pretty absurd.
