3·9 months agoStripe has pretty robust subscription management. And their APIs are a dream to work with.

Depending on how nerdy you want to be, hledger is pretty robust.
It would take a bit of setup, but you can automate transaction imports and apply rules to categorise transactions automatically.

AWS Route53. Lets me keep all my domains in one place. If Cloudflare did .au I’d switch to that.
I use PhotoSync to sync my Apple Photos to my NAS over SMB.
Cloudflare offers a lot of services, including domain registration and DNS hosting.

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.
After the pricing change, I believe it’s still free (or negligible) for low email traffic.
5,000 emails per month are still free, at $0.07 per 1,000 after that.
SES is pretty solid and easy to work with. Free for small email volumes like your use case.
You need to verify your domain and request production access explaining your use-case. If you’re only sending to known recipients, you can just verify them and not worry about the “production access”.
I hope to never have to restore from there. It’s not something you’re to do frequently.
AWS Glacier. I use the Synology plugin that does it automatically on a schedule.
This library looks like it could be a good starting point - https://convert.js.org/

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.
