My compiler (MSVC) is subscription. My go-to editor for other stuff (PyCharm and other JetBrains editors) is a subscription. My email client isn't, but my email hosting (FastMail), which has a web client, is.
It doesn't even register -- they are tools I need for my work and I'm happy to pay yearly for them. It's worth nothing that with the exception of email (which, being on my own domain, I can always move elsewhere), I still keep usable licenses if I stop subscribing, I am not locked-in.
