    The sort of collectible one of his characters would purchase after a successful exit from a crypto startup. But it is beautiful. Also what is this new snowcrash story he was workin…

    I've used both. firefly-iii is a fairly good, easy to maintain and host, web app. It's not as good design or UX as Actual - especially since firefly-iii has no mobile experience to…
