Why not Actual Budget, which is also self-hosted, open-source bucket budgeting based off YNAB, however it appears to be a lot more mature.
They also transparently run the project on Open Collective which I like: https://opencollective.com/actual
I’m guessing because this one is open. There are very few self hosted budgeting tools, and a lot of desktop ones. If I’m going through the trouble of self hosting one, it better be open source. I don’t want to get stuck with all my financial data in an app I don’t want to pay anymore or worse, goes out of business.
If the open self hosted app doesn’t suit me, there’s GnuCash. A bit of a learning curve and less sexy, but it’s solid and got my finances stable through college.
While it used to be closed source the maintainer a couple years back decided to not make it a job, and open sourced, took down the hosted option, and nowaintains it as a side project open sourced.
