      I can get behind “Pay $X to remove ads” or “Pay $Y to unlock the full app.”

      I even understand subscriptions for some things.

      Just about everything else is avoided at all no costs.

        I can understand a subscription if it is directly related with the running cost of the service. But if it has no running cost for the manufacturer (e.g. you buy printer ink) it should not need a subscription to function.

      I’ve spent so much money on nail polish since I started transitioning. It’s more of a macro transaction really.
