What subscription services do you actually pay for and get value from? (lemy.lol)

I'm usually against subscription services, but there are a few I use that I think provide enough value to justify the cost. Are there subscriptions you think are worth the money for you?

Tidal ($5.82/month student), like my HiFi music, even if it's indistinguishable on most of the speakers I use
Nebula ($2.50/month), mostly the same shit as on YouTube but as-free (without adblock) and usually a bit early access
PIA (~$2.33/month), avoids a Netflix, Hulu, Disney+, Apple TV+, Discovery +, Paramount+, you get the gist+ subscription. You had a good thing going but you got greedy and fucked it
Recurring donation to Lemmy dev ($5/month), despite any of the devs political views, I appreciate the service and continued support of the software and recognize that dev isn't free,though I do need to sit down and set one up for my instance as well as my mastodon & pixelfed instances.

Some of these are yearly but reduced to monthly for ease of viewing
