What kind of annoying things are you dealing with?

You don’t have to put the user home in /var/lib either if that helps at all.

If you’re already running rootless, I’d keep doing that unless there’s a really good reason not to.

Works fine for me so far from steam on linux.

If it makes you feel better, I’ve dealt with so many servers where someone ran chmod -R 777 / thinking it’d solve all of their permission issues.

Self hosted and open source projects are successful if you enjoy it or are solving something you need. Bonus points if it helps someone else too.

What about Nextcloud? It’s heavier than syncthing, but would be an alternative.

I went through a bunch before settling on Kanboard. If you try kanboard, there are some plugins/themes to make it look nicer.

In the end though, I ended up moving away from it. Would be curious what you end up using!

I really like it. I don’t use it for much, but it’s super easy to have multiple servers in multiple locations and let it take care of replication.

It seemed like it was built more for the self hosting and homelab crowd and not enterprises.

But that’s also something easily programmed/scripted. How would you tell the difference?

Yep, you can install it directly on the proxmox host too.

Just make sure you test it and also test upgrades so you can avoid having to be on-site for those.

I dont remember the name of it, but there were tools that could store issues inside of git. It’d be hard to keep it in sync with everybody without a central repo, but maybe not much harder than keeping the code in sync too.

Is it a single server? Maybe something like sops is all you need

There’s an oss fork of vault now as well. Openbao.

I forgot about librewolf. Any downsides to it over Firefox?

I don’t know how to feel about that video being 17 years old

Thanks for sharing your scripts. Could you create an account in firefly-iii that is just the overall value and have a script that takes the balance from ghostfolio and updates it in firefly-iii?

For Plaid, I went through the process to apply for “production” access and get oauth access to most banks. It really wasn’t bad at all. I basically just said I was going to use it for personal use, not selling anything, and not letting others use it. I haven’t used it much, but did get it approved relatively quickly.

Totally fair. When you have a lot of history in an app and don’t have any real issues with it, it takes a lot to want to switch to something else.

Do you import transactions at all, or just manually input them?

What was cumbersome around tagging/categorizing in Maybe? I’m probably going to have to install all of the ones I’m interested in at the same time to test them side by side

Have you tried any of the other options by any chance? Anything that GNUCash does well that keeps you using it? I think not having mobile access would be the thing I’d miss the most

Oof, good to know about the sync issue. That would be pretty annoying to lose all that work.

I tried Actual before, but I don’t remember what I didn’t like about it. I’ll take another look at it. The budgeting part does remind me of YNAB.

Oh wow, Maybe does look pretty slick and covers most of what I want. It looks like it supports importing transactions automatically (without csv files?) but I don’t see much about how that’s configured for hte self-hosted version yet. I’ll definitely try it out.

Paisa looks pretty nice too. I might try it if I can import/convert my old beancount ledger files into it.
