Naming and shaming all "recurring spending models" where a one-time fee (or none at all) would be appropriate and logical.
Expect use of strong language.
Follow the basic rules of lemmy.world and common sense, and try to have fun if possible.
No flamewars or attacking other users, unless they're spineless corporate shills.
Note that not all subscriptions are awful. Supporting your favorite ~~camgirl~~ creator or Lemmy server on Patreon is fine. An airbag with subscription is irl Idiocracy-level dystopian bullshit.
New community rule: Shilling for cunty corporations, their subscriptions and other anti-customer practices may result in a 1-day ban. It's so you can think about what it's like when someone can randomly decide what you can and can't use, based on some arbitrary rules. Oh what, you didn't read this fine print? You should read what you're agreeing to.

I love my NordicTrack. It's an old model, I push buttons and it goes. I have no idea why treadmills would ever need to be online. It doesn't even need a screen. Mine just has a shelf for your tablet to go on.
I have the 2450 with a 22” screen. While I can use it without the internet, I really enjoy running along with a trainer and virtually going to the most amazing places on the planet. I honestly won’t use it if I can’t have that feature.
Ok I can see how some people want that feature.
Me, I just put a movie on and run while watching it. I have never had a trainer - virtual or otherwise.
