It's a free trial; you haven't paid for any period of time.

I have "Apple One", and under the "Cancel All Services" button, it says if I cancel now, they will remain active until the end of the current subscription period.

"Cancel Free Trial" - I'm sure they would happily refund $0.

They're bringing Apple's password manager to 3rd party apps โ€“ i.e., Chrome โ€“ in the new macOS version.

If you're a bit on the techy side, take a look at plain text accounting.

I'm not overly familiar with how things work financially in the U.S. for day-to-day things, but here in Australia, I run everything through my debit card, so at the end of the month, I import all my transactions into Hledger, allocate them to their appropriate expenditure account (i.e., food, gas, utilities, dining out, etc.) and then I can run a report on where my money has gone. I've been doing it over the past 2 years and it gives some really good insight.

Although it's retrospective, it helps me understand what I'm spending my money on and can help forecast and budget.

Absolutely. Each server can be entirely standalone, you can just disable federation.

I have iCloud+ on a family plan. Gives me Apple TV, Music, Fitness and 2TB of storage. I use it to back up all my photos (with a process to back them up to my local NAS as well as additional cloud storage - AWS Glacier)

I'm on a Mac all day and have an iPhone and iPad, so it works for me.

Some alternatives might be cheaper, but the integrations are too good to pass up.

Tailscale "just works". Since I've set it up I've never really thought about using anything else. Adding new devices is seamless.

I use Cloudflare as my ingress point. They have a lot of features to provide security against a wide variety of attacks.
