Buddi vs Pasta

Buddi is a free budgeting program intended for people with little or no financial background. It lets users create accounts and categories, enter transactions, and review their spending habits. Project documentation shows a main budget window and reports including a net worth graph and income pie graph. Buddi runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows and is licensed under GNU General Public License version 2.0 (GPLv2). The project lists Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Greek, Italian, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Serbian, Spanish, and Swedish. A separate plugins project lists CSV and QIF import and export plugins. Older.buddi files require the Import Legacy Buddi Data plugin rather than the default.buddi3 format; older plugins may also require updates or recompilation after a version change. The latest listed version is Buddi-3.4.1.14, and stable files are dated 2019-04-03. The project describes Buddi Live as an online option available on mobile devices, though phones are difficult to use and tablets work better. Buddi costs nothing.

Pasta is a clipboard history manager for macOS that keeps copied links, words and images available for searching and reuse. Users can search or filter saved items, then paste a selected clip, plain text or several clips at once. Previews cover links, images, code and colours, while automatic detection can identify items such as emails, JWTs, URLs and environment variables. Reusable snippets can include dates and placeholders, with optional keyword expansion. Clipboard contents are stored on the device by default, and no account is required. Sensitive items are skipped by default; iCloud sync, Tailnet Sync, crash reports and analytics remain off until enabled. Optional iCloud sync can combine Mac and iPhone clipboard history. Tailnet Sync pairs Macs through Tailscale discovery and target approval. Pasta is free and open source under the MIT License. It supports macOS 14.0 (Sonoma) or later and iOS. The security policy says its local database and images are not encrypted at rest by Pasta and recommends FileVault.
