What subscription finally gave you "subscription fatigue"? (poptalk.scrubbles.tech)

Learned the term recently and really enjoy it, subscription fatigue is the feeling we all have had now where we are just over how everything is subscription based.

Which one was the last straw or most annoying/frustrating to you?

I had a free Google Workspace account used for my family email since the inception of the program. Over a few years it went from free to USD$12 per user, with increasing restrictions put upon it.

From that point onwards, I never trusted any product from Google, and will never consider any in future. It's a company with no internal consistency, and has the motto of "we will do anything that's evil if it helps make us look better than Apple".

Yes I'm still salty about it.

Most recently tho, Netflix.
