Hey Everybody.

Since I still use this project myself often, and some of you find it useful enough to sponsor me here on Github
(💜 @greyestapps @ghabiger @skempken @netgitdom) I feel like I should give an update.

TL;DR: I've lost motivation but not interest.

1. Most impactful is that I currently struggle with mental health and therefore have cut down on things that felt like a burden and am doing more stuff that spark joy in the moment. BudgetBudget had felt more like a burden in the past 2 years.
2. That is partly because I tried to completely redo the onboarding when I last worked on the project and kinda failed to met my own expectations which lead to a situation where I was not motivated to continue working on the onboarding but it felt wrong to work on the project and discarding my onboarding stuff.
3. Also I've integrated an early preview of react@18 and it took the react team much longer than expected to stabilise the release (was released ~3 months ago). So I felt blocked by react - It was a bad choice to jump on the pre-release train but it also felt wrong to jump of it now that the project was on it leading to a dead-lock.
4. Last but not least: Earlier this year I realised that Ideally this App would be a native swift app and not electron. It's only electron because I'm most fluent in JavaScript but for the most part I've been reinventing the wheel to make this look and feel like a MacOS app. So I started learning swift, even motivated a dear friend of mine to do this together with me. But until now I don't fell like I know enough of the native programming environment to build an application that is mostly concerned with our financial data.

Yeah. So this is where we are. I still use the current state of the app a lot and whenever I open it I feel bad for not continuing work. But I also feel unable to make the decisions required for me to work on this.

If you have any input on this please let me know. And thank you for staying with me, the feedback and for being kind humans!
