This question just came to me while I was buying a subway pass. It's priced very well, provides a very good service, doesn't suffer from enshittification, and its price increases very rarely.

What are some other services which people don't mind subscribing to?

Coffee delivery. I use a fairly consistent amount, so I don't get as overloaded/running out as some other things I've tried to subscribe to - and it lets me bypass "big grocery", and get better quality product directly from the roaster/blender.

That sounds interesting but hyper-specific. But recently, I have switched to buying consumables directly from the producer. Skips the middle man like Amazon.
