So I'm considering just using excel to keep track of all my expenses and income, but is there a better solution? What do you use to track how you spend money? I want something from which I can freely export the data if need be so excel is tempting.

So do I, but it's expensive for what it is. There's a free version called Actual Budget which can be run off of a computer you control. Great for selfhosting.
