Services

I hate subscriptions and actively avoid them when I can. This is mostly a financial decision but is also motivated by data privacy. The services here are mostly irreplaceable for their features and/or should not be self-hosted for security.

    I use ProtonVPN purely for P2P traffic as it's one of the few VPN services that supports port forwarding.

Postmark

I mainly need transactional email for self-hosted apps, which send a very low volume. Postmark's free plan has been perfect for this.
