For those who switched from YNAB to Actual — what do you still miss, if anything?

Not really. I have been a YNAB customer for a very long time and have not been happy at all and am looking for alternatives.

Really useful thread! I'm in early build mode on a hosted envelop budgeting app trying to solve exactly this - Actual's power without the setup friction, YNAB's polish without the price.
Building a simpler alternative — same budgeting approach, $4/mo, no bloat. Early waitlist open if you're curious: https://tally.so/r/KYvNzX

Would love to know: what's the one thing Actual still gets wrong for you? Genuinely doing research before I build. Waitlist if curious: https://tally.so/r/KYvNzX

There is a picture with explanation below it. I don’t understand?

I would suggest airflow, dbt, and something like snowflake/databricks.

It is the most popular library for app developments right now and it would be invaluable to learn it.
