@zhugeliang:matrix.orgburke Hi guys, I have a question... I've been using ledger for a long time for both personal and business accounting. What is practical advantage of hledger over ledger? 11:00:29
@simonmic:matrix.orgsmHi burke15:58:03
@simonmic:matrix.orgsmhledger is like 90% of ledger implemented more thoroughly with more QA and more ease of use16:00:08
@simonmic:matrix.orgsmhledger's FAQ has more on this16:00:19
@simonmic:matrix.orgsmalso FYI these matrix rooms are not much used, you'll find more people in #freenode_#plaintextaccounting:matrix.org and #freenode_#hledger:matrix.org16:02:12

@zhugeliang:matrix.orgburke Thanks, that's OK. On freenode I'll join through emacs and irc 01:32:37
@zhugeliang:matrix.orgburke Thank you for clarification. So I don't loose important functionality (I read about hledger add, it is very nice but since I use emacs ledger mode it is even more convenient) if I stay with ledger? 01:34:01
@simonmic:matrix.orgsm Well I’m biased but I think you do.. tabular balance reports is an obvious one 01:35:22
@simonmic:matrix.orgsm A good way to find out is to keep your journal compatible with both and use them both 01:36:01
@simonmic:matrix.orgsmhledger-ui is also a nice tool01:36:29
@zhugeliang:matrix.orgburke

Are you the creator of hledger? My situation is that I actually use both for personal finance and business. I've been using ledger now for over ten years I believe. But you know the grass is greener syndrome hehe so when I read about hledger I got curious.

For me a reason to switch would be if there is a killer feature difference between them.

Thank you very much by the way for developing it (even if I don't use it yet)

@simonmic:matrix.orgsmburke: ah, cool. Yes I am01:46:43
@zhugeliang:matrix.orgburke OK, I will read then hledger's manual then. Hledger-ui seems interesting tbh 01:50:24
@simonmic:matrix.orgsmburke: as an expert ledger user you probably won’t care about ease of use/bugs but yes, check out hledger-ui —watch and is -M and import -f bank.csv01:53:54
@zhugeliang:matrix.orgburke Thank you very much. I will. I don't consider myself expert ledger user though. Just long term haha I don't use many features. 02:02:52
