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?

    Around the time when netflix started to suck, and new subacription services popped up everywhere.

    Then a lot of other things that shouldnt rely on a aubscription started getting it. Random apps with a pro mode. The pro mode was now a subscription… its dreadful.

    I refuse to get a subscription i would “need” to keep around fpr years.

    Here we have 1 video streaming service for a month or two every once in a while. Never two at the same time.

      This is exactly what I do. Every once in a while I get a subscription to Netflix, watch a handful of shows, cancel the subscription, and a few months later start a subscription to another streaming service for a month each. The only service I ever stayed subscribed to for more than one month per year is crunchyroll, but even that’s no more than 3 months in a year.
