Skrooge

Skrooge is a personal finance application built for the KDE desktop environment, offering a lightweight alternative to heavy spreadsheets or cloud-based services. It tracks expenses and income, lets you set budgets across categories, and displays your data in spreadsheet-like tables you can pivot and analyze. Because it's native to KDE, it integrates smoothly with your desktop and stays on your machine rather than in the cloud.

It's ideal if you use Linux with KDE, prefer desktop software over web apps, and want more control over your data structure than envelope apps provide. Compared to spreadsheets, it's much simpler to set up and maintain, you don't build formulas from scratch, but it's less flexible than a blank Google Sheet if you need custom calculations or layouts.
