I'm giving them a year until lifetime licenses start to mean nothing. (slrpnk.net)

I just bought a lifetime subscription to Nebula (a YouTube-like service akin to a co-op for content creators) and my rationale was

Lifetime costs the same as ten years of annual priced subscriptions
It will be cheaper than that due to inflation
The service has been operating for 5 years, so it's likely to last at least 10 more
The service is philosophically opposed to the sort of place that may try to acquire it

Other stuff, no thanks. Too many practical products (as opposed to entertainment ones) have a great supply of methods to screw you and a great desire to screw you.
