Best foss budget software for both linux and android? (lemmy.antemeridiem.xyz)

Looking to start budgeting, I'd like to be able to use it on both android and linux and use syncthing to sync the file. Is there a good solution for that?

it'd be nice if I could easily divide my income into different buckets, add expenses to those buckets, and see how much is remaining in any given bucket for the current month. Less important but still nice would be an easy way to roll surplus into the same bucket for the next month

Same here, happy actual user 😁 coming from ynab, it‘s basicalöy the same. Even has most mobile features since the latest release (editing budgets, adding spendings, etc.) :)

Note that its actualbudget.org :)

It says it supports local editing, is it possible to just skip their syncing entirely and use syncthing/a local file? I don't have a server to host stuff myself, and don't want to have to buy hosting either. Using a file just seems simpler and more reliable to me

Yep, you can also install it locally, though it requires a bit of command line :)

Ah, so that's what it's based on. Seems the project's GitHub has been pretty active so I'm glad I stumbled upon it when I did.

As for the domain, I didn't realize the distinction but upon closer inspection it'd seem .com points to what used to be the original, commercial version? Thanks for pointing it out!
