• I CANT FIND A BUDGET SYSTEM I CAN STICK TO...

  Another app that works pretty well is the free one called HomeBank available at: http://homebank.free.fr/ It only works on desktop or laptop computers - Windows, Mac, and Linux. Source: about 1 year ago

• Windows Software for Logging Expenses/Income

  I tried to download and try Homebank (http://homebank.free.fr/) but Microsoft Defender SmartScreen through a fit due to "unknown publisher" and in virustotal the installer was flagged by 3 vendors (Bkav Pro, Gridinsoft (no cloud),Elastic) Probably false positives as it seems to be open source, but not sure if I want to risk it.

• Gnucash – open-source accounting software for personal and small businesses

  I use HomeBank [1] because I find the UI a lot simpler than GnuCash and importing mostly just works, with pretty good automatic category assignment that lets you use regular expressions. The only quirk is that one of my accounts uses a non-standard ordering for its csv file which needs fixing before HomeBank will accept it since the import UI is limited. I also find that it is useful to track the database file... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• GnuCash

  I used to use HomeBank (http://homebank.free.fr), now just a LibreOffice spreadsheet. I think for personal finances, it's perfectly fine to just record monthly total expenses as a bulk sum, for each account. Unless 'something's off' (i.e. My family has spent too little or too much) it's okay to not know all the expense items. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• App for multiple budgets

  I have used financier.io for years and love it—especially the fact that I can have multiple budgets (one budget for all of my personal accounts, and a separate budget for those accounts I share with my partner). But as our financial lives get more and more complicated, it becomes more and more of a hassle to manually enter every transaction, so I am considering a switch to a budget app that will connect with my...

• random expenses always pile up

  Also not the person you asked. I use Financier, which is much like YNAB, but with fewer bells and whistles and MUCH cheaper ($15/year vs. $99, both $USD). The biggest difference is that Financier won't link to your bank accounts, but I find that manual entry works better for us anyway. Source: about 1 year ago

• Moved Back to YNAB4

  If you like YNAB4 but want a web version financier.io is a good alternative. it can even import your YNAB4 data. But after that, new transaction do need to be added manually, there's no importing (even by like csv files or whatever). Source: about 1 year ago

• Local-First Web Development

  I've been really happy with CouchDB + PouchDB at https://financier.io You can do unique things like offer a trial period without syncing (database wholly in browser), which allows for ridiculously quick onboarding. And the sync mechanism works so well. It's really cool how easy it is to implement a Google Docs-like sync mechanism with conflict resolution baked in. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

  So you recreated https://financier.io/ ? Source: over 1 year ago
