It's just a bank account at the end of the day, and it's FDIC-insured, so why not?

I'm using SoFi right now (4.5%), but I'd switch to Wealthfront in a heartbeat if they had joint account support. They're always very fast to raise the rate when the fed announces a rate hike, and they seem generally pleasant to use from what my coworkers say.

Yeah! +1 for YNAB. Been on it for around 6 months now, can't imagine not using it anymore.

Couldn't agree more. I grew up poor, and I've been lucky to find a well-paying job in my adult life. It makes me feel so good to be able to do the things for people that I couldn't do when I was younger. I love that quote too - that's totally true for me. I think I get more satisfaction out of being able to offer something than the person actually receiving the thing.

Yeah, that's my guess too. I assume there's some nuance to it that I'm not privy to, but real estate has to be a huge factor.

As a datapoint from the other side, my company (big tech) is holding the party line no matter what. Lower level engineer or director - if you don't come in the requisite number of days a week, you're out. It's a bafflingly short-sighted move, but company culture is more important than anything apparently.

I'm about 50/50 for browsing on my phone vs on iPad (with keyboard). I'd happily use Bean more if it felt more iPad native, but for now I'm mostly using Thunder and Voyager on iPad. (Occasionally Mlem -- I like the sidebar, but image previews aren't working for me).

I've been trying to follow, but clearly I missed it - anyone know if there's an iOS client in the works, or will this be Android only?

I know french doors with water / ice dispensers are way more prone to breaking than ones that don't route water through the door, but man, I love mine. Having filtered water easy to access makes me so much more likely to actually drink water regularly.

It's one of the few games I've sunk triple-digit hours into. Such a good game.

Sekiro (RPG).

It's not necessarily representative of RPGs as a whole, but man, I have never played a game that felt so polished. The combat is immaculate, the levels are beautiful, and more subtly, the power scaling is really well tuned. Because it's not open world, they were able to hand tune the enemies' difficulty more closely to match your own progression, and for me, it resulted in fights that always felt challenging but fair.

Agreed in theory, but Hot sort seems bugged for me :\ The few pages of results are good, but then it starts serving me posts from over a year ago

Personally, I haven't brought myself to start using it yet, because I like having everything visible all in one place. I've thought about making a view for my most highly variable categories (e.g. my going out money, not my fixed monthly bills), but I can mostly accomplish the same thing by just putting those categories at the top.

 

I just noticed the other day that focused views is supported now on mobile too. Is anybody using it or have any views they really like?
