I always recommend some sort of envelope system where you assign every dollar a job. Create categories for your expenses and then you can deduct from those by adding payee transactions. Actual budget has a self hosted option for free and YNAB has a subscription model I believe.

Thanks for the reply! I'll look into these!
Update: Ended up installing Actual
and it's pretty nice! I think I'll also check out Quicken and YNAB (for non self-hosted options).
