    I use a few of the ones mentioned already (thankfully some I get from friends for free, like The Athletic, which I'm glad my friend shares with me because they write some good stuff and have ad-free versions of their podcasts). One thing I've not seen mentioned is any form of to-do list app. I use TickTick personally. It's $3/mo, and I enjoy it because it's pretty customizable and reliable. I use reminders a crap ton, and have various lists (shopping list, school assignment list, general to do, things I want to try in Minecraft, etc).
    You can use it for free, the subscription just gives you unlimited lists and items in lists, as well as sub items per item. E.g. I have my TBR list on there, and for each series I'll go in and list out each individual work, and when I check those off it checks off the series). I liked it over Todoist because you can actually use it to set up reminders with alarms in the free version, whereas it's paywalled in Todoist. It's also more powerful than other alternatives, like Microsoft To-Do, Google Tasks and etc.

    I've also recently been using Optery to try and clean up my Internet presence a bit and be more conscious of my own privacy.
