  This is exactly the thing I’ve been looking for. It saves everything as a sqlite dB, and has csv export options. So you’re not fucked over if you need to switch to something else.

  And the import options seem pretty good too.

  Congrats, you’ve made me spend the whole day switching everything over to that lol.

  Ooh, this looks great… thanks for sharing! Maybe it will finally rip my excel spreadsheets from out of my hands 😂

    Net worth and investment tracking goes in my spreadsheets, budgeting in Actual Budget.

  I started using Actual yesterday. It’s amazing . It feels good not having to forcibly pay shit and have a good product community driven.

  I’m guessing because this one is open. There are very few self hosted budgeting tools, and a lot of desktop ones. If I’m going through the trouble of self hosting one, it better be open source. I don’t want to get stuck with all my financial data in an app I don’t want to pay anymore or worse, goes out of business.

  If the open self hosted app doesn’t suit me, there’s GnuCash. A bit of a learning curve and less sexy, but it’s solid and got my finances stable through college.

    You’re replying to my comment about Actual Budget, the very open source budgeting solution?

      I did look in the link you provided earlier and all I saw was pricing and features. Nothing wrong with an open project selling services, of course. But can you really blame me?

        I mean I really can. They don’t even have a paid option, just a big open source message:

    While it used to be closed source the maintainer a couple years back decided to not make it a job, and open sourced, took down the hosted option, and nowaintains it as a side project open sourced.

  Or, www.firefly-iii.org, a full self-hosted system similar to Mint.
