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

  • Bitwarden
  • Addy.io
  • Backblaze B2 (technically not a subscription)
  • Managed Nextcloud (Hetzner)
  • Webhosting (Hetzner)

I'm a student and I don't work that much so I try to keep the costs down. I considered selfhosting Nextcloud but it doesn't seem worth it for now.

How do I webhost with Hetzner? I want to get into server hosting and Hetzner is a small business with a good price, but the learning curve is so steep.

It's not that hard, just create an account and order a web hosting plan. You can edit the files using FTP. It's just web hosting though, you're probably better off with a VPS if you want to run your own software.
