Ask HN: Software for Overthinkers?
I have a tendency to overthink and be a little cheap. I wish I had paid for these subscriptions sooner;
Dropbox
Fastmail
What software has simplified your life?
- brudgers 3y ago1. Windows. I was all in on Linux for about six years. One day I realized that paying for commercial applications was worth it. That's a thing with Windows. Not so much on Linux. 2. Youtube Premium in terms of web services. I get information faster and without commercials. Good luck.

- srinathkrishna 2y agoDoesn't work on phone. Especially if you're on the road. If you're at home and use YouTube on multiple devices, of course you can use a pihole or something. I have a long commute (which is not very unreasonable). YouTube Premium also lets you download videos on your phone and have it background play. I usually record talks/lectures the previous night before my commute the following day. Has definitely help me keep my sanity! My kid watches YouTube sometimes and I'm sure she'll appreciate getting this when she was younger so much so that she will naturally develop the aversion to ads when she grows up! :D
- Loxicon 2y agoGood point. Before covid, i did the same on my long communte. This is the perfect usecase for yt premium
