Really just curious what folks out there deem valuable enough to give money for monthly or annually. As a software engineer I have quite a few that keep me productive and I’ll list a few:

  • ChatGPT
  • Perplexity
  • Obsidian Sync
  • YouTube Premium

    • Bitwarden
    • Racknerd VPS
    • Backblaze B2
    • PIA VPN
    • Purelymail
    • Usenet
    • ChatGPT API

    And the occasional donation to open source projects like pihole.

        I assume they’re talking about this api

        Any tools that interface well with it?

        Lots of tools, but it depends on where you want to use it. For example, inside Obsidian you can use it as a text generator

        Inside VSCode you can use something like AI Genie

        If you just want to use it raw, you can use postman

        My main use is chatgptbox with my instance of searxng. Also comes in handy when looking for a shell command or script with ai-shell.

        Then there’s the various integrations in documents, notes, etc…
