  I can share the script on GitHub if anyone is interested. Among other things, it converts funds to their value at the time of the transaction and adds additional transactions to reflect capital gains and losses. This allows Metabase to accurately report net worth.

  Docker + Caddy (for reverse proxy) fits most use cases IMO. I really like this person’s approach: github.com/DoTheEvo/selfhosted-apps-docker. They use Docker networks to avoid unnecessary port mapping - it’s a very clean method.

  I really want this too. Neither Actual nor Firefly III support stocks/funds (open issues for Actual and for Firefly III.

  I use GnuCash for my transactions, which I manually export from my accounts as QFX files. Although GnuCash has support for tracking fund values and generating reports, I do this with a custom Python script and Metabase instead.

  Stalwart is gaining momentum. I haven’t used it, but it’s worth a look. stalw.art

  I think it’s cool you’re trying to find ways to get into this. If the goal is to learn, why not deploy the services on your laptop? They won’t be available when the computer is off of course, but you would still get the full experience. Even a low-spec laptop will be better than a cheap VPS.

  As others said, both Firefly III and Actual Budget do not support stocks. I wish they did, but I guess I’ll have to stick with GnuCash + Metabase for now.

  Nice list. Another, similar repo, also quite opinionated: github.com/DoTheEvo/selfhosted-apps-docker. I’m not the author, I’ve just found it really helpful at times.

  I had the same problem as OP. My solution was to port forward to my server but then block connections from all IP addresses accept from my work, which I added to an allowlist.

  It’s working well so far, but I think the Cloudflare tunnel is the better option.
