Why it's listed

Firefly III is listed in bookkeeping & budgeting because it competes on utility: personal finance manager, double-entry. It's built by an independent, bootstrapped team — no growth-at-all-costs pressure, no ad-tax passed to you. Licensed AGPL-3.0; pricing: free. Its resource footprint is reasonable for what it does, though not featherweight. This entry is provisional — the scores are seeded estimates pending our full manual rubric pass, and the verification date will appear here once complete.
