A place to share alternatives to popular online services that can be self-hosted without giving up privacy or locking you into a service you don't control.

Rules:

  1. Be civil: we're here to support and learn from one another. Insults won't be tolerated. Flame wars are frowned upon.

  2. No spam posting.

  3. Posts have to be centered around self-hosting. There are other communities for discussing hardware or home computing. If it's not obvious why your post topic revolves around selfhosting, please include details to make it clear.

  4. Don't duplicate the full text of your blog or github here. Just post the link for folks to click.

  5. Submission headline should match the article title (don’t cherry-pick information from the title to fit your agenda).

  6. No trolling.

I own a small business and am currently using quickbooks, however I don't really make enough to justify the price I am paying for it. I did have a deal for roughly 3 months which made it cheap, however the price has gone up now.

I was wondering if anyone knows of any self hosted applications that support business like tracking. Would something like firefly work for this? I am not really needing budgeting.

Do you want to be able to access it from a browser? Gnucash is a standalone program, but you could edit the file from anywhere as long as you have access to it.

I've never used Gnucash for business purposes, but it's certainly capable. There's a learning curve to it but it's not too bad. I never got online banking set up with it, but you can import .csv, etc.

Second GNUCash or homebank. I sync the database between machines using nextcloud.

I have looked into GNUCash in the past and there is definitely a learning curve so trying to see if there is anything else that may be a little more towards what I want.

It would be nice to be able to access from a browser, it can make things a little easier. Preferably looking for something I can kick up a docker container or something simple so I can easily back up the data if need be and it can fit into my current self hosted stack.

Maybe do some gtk Broadway funkyness if they feel like playing god and want browser access
