Memes that are too meirl for /c/meirl.

Rules:

  1. Respect the community. If you're not into self-deprecating/dark/suicidal humor then this place isn't for you. Kindly just block and move on. This is just how some of us cope.

  2. Respect one another.

  3. All titles must begin with 2meirl4meirl. This is for multiple reasons. One is just so you can be lazy with titles but another is so people who aren't into this kind of humor can avoid it.

  4. Otherwise just the general no bigotry, no dickishness, no spam, no malice, etc stuff.

Sidebar will be updated when I feel like and considering I'm Sadboi extraordinaire we'll see when that will be.

I use ynab (you need a budget) to try and help me out. Emphasis on try.

Solid suggestion. I'm trying to get up and running with something a bit more involved. Right now I'm standing up a firefly III system for myself; I have to stand up an add-on to import data. Still gotta figure out some particulars.

It's self hosted FOSS, which bluntly, I trust more than anything else. I'm certainly not paying what some companies think their budgeting software is worth on a subscription just to do my personal finance.

EDIT: just to be clear, I'm not knocking the price of ynab here, I'm more specifically talking about something like quicken, which is between $2-5 monthly to subscribe (depending on which product you get). IMO, it's pretty idiotic to pay monthly to manage your monthly finances. I would imagine most people would use quicken (or a similar app) to reduce their month by month spending on stuff, and the first thing you need to do to get started is to spend more money monthly to have the privilege of doing so. There are obviously benefits and value to doing that, but it doesn't make sense for me.
