From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I use Buckets . It's a small 1 person freeware, dev asks for a 30 dollar one time donation but it isn't mandatory. It's based on the software and idealogy of ynab which enshittified several years ago. The learning resources of ynab should be mostly compatible but I haven't looked at it in a while.
It interopts with simplefin, an open source tool that reads your bank transactions and gives read only access to buckets. It costs 10dollars per year to use their servers. It creates some annoying quirks that is mostly the fault of my bank but its passable. The app can also take csv files if you would prefer (which most banks allow you to export).
