So here's the thing, the entire software development industry is topped around the concept of constant maintenance. Android keeps updating so all android applications must constantly be updated to keep compatibility. It's gone beyond security patches to "business cases keep changing so the software is never done." And when that's the case, it is not economical for a company to charge ou once and keep providing you a service indefinitely.
I refuse to rent anything too. So the only option is FOSS. That means I do a lot of my own maintenance (my password manager database isn't backed up on some server I don't have to think about for example).
