Do you track your expenses monthly? Annually? Do you have an app or do you use an excel spreadsheet? Any suggested tools?

I use a spreadsheet and track monthly.

Ever since YNABs price hike I wanted to have an alternative, but all were not really up there yet. For a few weeks, I am using ActualBudget which has been open-sourced by the developer and is actively maintained, including the „recently“ introduced support for goals :)

How do you feel it compares to YNAB?

[–] stephaaaaan@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

It‘s mooostly the same, except for the web app not yet being too mobile friendly. It works in horizontal orientation, though :) The sync via nordigen (goCardless now) also works properly.

Its basically like nYNAB when it launched, which was perfect for me. As of now, their [ynab’s] UI is getting more and more cluttered :) I can only recommend giving it a spin.
