• Tell HN: YNAB will partly remove direct bank imports

  I use Actual budget. It’s open source, free, but you’ll have to figure out hosting.

• Best way to track the totality of all your finances (in one place)?

  Tiller. tillerhq.com connects to your accounts and fills in the line items into a gsheet or excel for you. Once there, they have templates to use or you can roll your own in spreadsheets.

• YNAB Alternative

  I use a software called Tiller. It links to Google Sheets and then feeds your bank info in. It has worked fantastic for 4+ years.
