  • i have one running debian as a secondary backup to run just smart home stuff and pi-hole. you can set it up to start back up after power failure. was like $50 used. there’s basically no point in it being a mac rather than an old lenovo machine, but it sure is cute looking.

  • i’ve been enjoying it, the docs are really good. i think it could be a little “smarter” like with recognizing schedules, but it’ll only get better. a major limiting factor for me that isn’t any fault of actual is that my apple card either through simplefin or manually exporting only allows download of the previous month’s transactions after closing. so for that account it’s not really useful for seeing where i’m at budget-wise halfway through the month, only in retrospect and forecasting.










  • Yeah true. I think what I’m looking for is a reasonable cost/benefit/time investment, like maybe I’ll order a Kanary scan once a year and manually opt them all out. I did kanary this afternoon and the vast majority only had my voter registration info, but a few had attached my cell number which might be from the WhoIs data. If I can slow the spread of that for <$20/year I’ll feel satisfied.
