  • Looks promising. I been finding lots of money and asset management apps lately that are FOSS but they are all server side. I would like to find something like this that is completely client side only and you save your data to a encrypted file which one can easily sync to other devices with Syncthing and easily backup.

    Client side will always be more secure than storing your data on a centralized server, even if you self host your own server. Or even if Ghostfolio created a flutter or tauri app and let users have the option to store their data locally in a encrypted file or on a server of their choice. That will be the killer app/service.

    Yes but hosting a “free speech instance” in a country without freedom of speech protections will be harder to run due to the lack free speech rights. I advise running such an instance in the US for this reason.

    The users on the instance that are not US citizens have to in theory follow their local laws. Kinda like how a Russian or Chinese internet user needs to be cautious when using American social media.

    Start off with Bottles if Wine is too hard. Wine is a cmd line application while Bottles is Wine with a GUI making it easy to manage Wine.

    Also, it is wise to try and have a different wine bottle (aka prefix) for each windows application you install and run.

    Also Linux Mint is a distro that comes with Cinnamon pre-installed as long you download the Cinnamon option which is a fork of Ubuntu.
