Actual Budget I use to track my finance.
Duplicacy for backups to OneDrive and Backblaze
Photoprism as Google replacement
Immich is also a great Google Photos alternative. Though it is in active development and things may break, I've been thoroughly impressed by it.
My problem with Actual Budget is it's only a singular currency. I deal with Euro, Dollar, Romanian Lei, British Pound. Having to manually convert each to Dollar, and then have a bit of discrepancy due to price fluctuations made it a no go for me. Have not found a good self hosted finance tracker that works for me yet.
At the moment I am unfortunately using a proprietary one called Cubux.
For what its worth, Firefly supports multiple currencies, hell I even see a few crypto currencies in the list haha.
That sounds complicated. If you don’t mind sending everything over an app Revolut can perhaps help out?
I actually use Revolut as my main bank account. :) Fantastic service but unfortunately it can only track stuff spent within Revolut. I use Cubux because I can track all of my bank accounts, and have a shared overview of my wife's and I's finance. Both of us have all of our accounts connected there. They made it incredibly easy to use, just unfortunate that it's not open source or self hostable.
Actual budget looks really nice. Until now I've just been using MoneyFox, but I'll definitely try out Actual budget
I used YNAB which worked great but I want to move as much as I can over to my own server. The development is going really fast at the moment.
Is it a YNAB replacement? It would be nice to drop that annual cost.
For me it is. YNAB is more finished but they are active developing it. I dropped YNAB.
Actual Budget looks really good. Does anyone know of something similar that can track investments?
Ghostfolio
That looks slick - will check it out. I've got something I built myself that does the basics (including calculating fire and coast values), but I'm definitely interested in seeing what this can do.
Actual Budget looks fantastic. And they claim they'll implement direct import soon. I need a YNAB alternative
I've been hunting for a YNAB equivalent and alternative for years since they went subscription based. This looks to fill that hole.
I'm using PhotoView instead of Photoprism, my RPI4 could handle it better. Just an alternative :)
Does it also have face detection?
Yes but it's a bit broken. The repo doesn't seem maintained actively.
I've mainly picked it because it doesn't use many resources. I can run it on a rpi along all the other stuff it's hosting.
Actual Budget looks fantastic. And they claim they'll implement direct import soon. I need a YNAB alternative
Yeah. My banks all work with direct import. Even banks that YNAB did not support.
Welp, I went down the wonderful hole of Actual today. Thank you for that!
Let’s see if it takes over from my xls. I’m liking it. It’s quick and I see lots of potential.
