The recurring cost is a real problem.

Not just financially. We all desperately want to feel some sense of agency over our future, and subscriptions force us to frequently reckon with our existential lack of control.

I acknowledge that might be how you feel, but that’s not my case.

I don’t even consider subscriptions I can’t afford, and that doesn’t bother me. I can afford many things and many more I can’t, it’s fine.

But it really bothers me that now i have one more think to look after, no matter how small, each month.

Also, many services will bill on different days of the month so potentially you could have a different thing bother you each day.
