We were originally projected to get a good bit of snow. Started snowing for a couple hours then it got a bit warmer and turned to rain. Rained all day yesterday so everything is just wet and gross

Or those people that immediately try and board an elevator as soon as the door opens. Like bro, wait and see if someone is trying to get off the thing first.

Moderation tools are a form of censorship on lemmy.

Lmao, rent free

Unfortunately no, that’s one thing the dev is very much against. In order to project anything, a transaction has to be made. So if you wanted to show what your balance in July would be after setting back $100 each month, you would need a $100 transaction in each month leading up to your target, then switch your view to July and see the balance.

If something recochets of the wall, it means it was already cocheting

yeah if you want that same functionality of months in advance transactions - you’ll have to create a similar solution with the cron job i mentioned.

Budgets work well enough. They allow you to create any number of budget “buckets” - and each can be configured in various ways:

• fixed amount each period
• add amount to bucket each period
• add amount to bucket each period and correct for overspending

You can even have different periods - daily, weekly, monthly, yearly - though I’ve only ever used monthly.

When you create transactions you assign them to a budget and it shows you how much you have left in that budget

I’ve been hosting my own firefly iii instance for a couple years now. It has its quirks but overall it’s a great home finance option. Better than some others I’ve tried.

As an example, the creator is adamantly against future transactions and projecting future transactions. There’s the ability to create “recurring” transactions and the app has a daily cron that will create the recurring transactions on the day they’re supposed to hit. I for one want to see these future transactions and want those to show up about a month early. To do this I have to spoof a cron job to make the app think it’s creating recurring transactions for 30 days from today. This works well enough to show my balances for the future.

I like it has a pretty nice API that you can hook I to from your own apps.

I wrote an importer app that uses Plaid to connect to my bank accounts and credit cards and it gives me the option to categorize transactions and import them into firefly. It’s made managing my finances incredibly simple. I used to spend hours on the weekend manually importing transactions from the previous week. Now I have something that I can tab through in a matter of minutes and see everything.
