Sure, but I don’t think it has to be a subscription nag. They’re free to monetize as they wish but I don’t have to use it either when non-subscription alternatives exist.

I set this up and like the UI but it does that stuff where it says things like “Hey you have duplicates do you want to remove them? Oops sorry you gotta pay for that” and “Hey we noticed you’re using a adblocker”. Everything has to be a subscription service these days.
In the past I’ve had a different experience with OEM chargers dying on me and off brand ones surviving longer but that was in a place with frequent power cuts. In general your advice is probably best to follow but I’ve also used non-OEM replacements without any bad experiences for many different devices.
