Minecraft was supposed to be a toy project Notch wanted to mess around with. Simplicity has never been a target, since every major release, including during the in/infdev days has had major changes.
I think I only have three subscriptions at the moment... Prime, Chewy, and a news commentary streaming site I like. That's pretty much it, not very expensive. Everything else is available to me by other means if I'm willing to pay one-off fees or just step outside my house. I'm okay with this.
I know BMW turn signals are a meme (with good reason...), but I've noticed the exact same behavioral trend with Lexus drivers as well. It's really just those two makes in particular.
The package format only really matters to packagers anymore I think. RHEL and SUSE are both RPM based though. The difference which matters to users is the package manager on top, which for RHEL is dnf (formerly yum) and on SUSE it's zypper. They're both competent package managers in my opinion.
This is the most underrated comment in this thread. Purpose is essential in ensuring one's mental well-being. Without it, you hit burnout or depression quickly.
