Aren't these illegal now? Or at least, frowned upon.

I don't frown upon it! I mostly don't even try subscription apps.

Edit: unless they are crazy well-priced, like this dictionary app https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dict-cc-dictionary/id327732352 (1 euro per year!)

That was definitely a joke
...what?
I imagine this is a joke based on basically how everything is now a subscription fee instead of a one-time payment.

Fantastical comes to mind first. Used to be like 5€ on the App Store, now it's 3.67€/month.
