I’ve always been conservative about what kind of services I host because it takes time to get them set up. For example, there’s no reason for me to set up music streaming when I only ever listen to music on my phone and all my music files are already on my phone. On the other hand, it’s a good learning opportunity to set stuff up and have to fix it when it breaks. What do you think?
How do you like Actual? I set up Fireflyiii as well, but once I read that there is no way to share a ledger, so to speak, it turned me off a bit.
My wife has bookkeeping experience, so something that is a bit closer to double entry bookkeeping would be awesome, since it should fit easily into her quickbooks experience.
Currently looking at akaunting, which seems like it may work, if it is truly self hosted
I’ve been able to make it work for my wife and me. We don’t distribute income as it comes in, so I’m ignoring like half the numbers in the UI, but it’s working.
I’m in the US, so there’s no good self-hosted way to get access to my own financial data, so I’ve got all my credit cards and my bank account emailing me alerts, and then I’m parsing the alerts into Actual. I’ve also got budgets filling automatically using schedules.
