New YNAB is out... could we YNAB 4 owners get a discount?
The new YNAB is out so could we YNAB 4 users get a discount? I know the people who bought over at YNAB official site could get some form of discount but how about we STEAMers? Any love for us?

Just to chime in with the dissenters to upgrading. Glad they didn't force it here! And it's not just syncing with the cloud. Replace "syncing" with storing and "the cloud" with someone else's computer. Then read that statement, and see if it's ok then. I like cloud computing, but only for certain things.

I hope you realize that Dropbox stores all your information right? Nothing has changed except the new YNAB is actually slightly safer because it removes another authentication chain between Dropbox and YNAB 4.

If security is what you're concerned about, then you can read the security section on YNAB. It's pretty much bulletproof to physical hacking because of the following reasons: forced HTTPS, encryption at rest, only 6 people have access in the world, and hashed passwords. The most likely scenario of your account being compromised is someone looking from behind or having a weak password.

Social engineering is and always has been the weakest link in the chain.

I got the discount apparently so I'm waiting for the trial to be over. I hope they finish YNAB 4 sync and the desktop app by then so I won't hesitate to upgrade. It's been great so far but a bit overpriced. I'm just buying on faith they would update more often.

I think we YNAB4 users already get a 10% discount, but I'm not sure how to claim it =/

@IcePop4wHO- you're assuming that I'm using dropbox to store my backups. You choose to store your cloud sync budget where you will. And I choose to use my own backup scheme on my own server.

Please excuse my assumption. You truly are an individual with a solution that most of us do not utilize, so I see how the sync feature is irrelevant.

how you can adjust your own server in YNAB4? Can you explain us, cause i can't see any options there to choose an own server instead of dropbox.

Change your sync folder. I use a Synology NAS, and it has a cloud sync utility (that basically syncs a folder to the NAS). The only caveat is that you cannot use mobile services, as they directly use dropbox. But as I don't use the mobile apps, it doesn't really matter for me.

That post also hinted at the fact that they were going cloud. I just didn't get that they were totally going SaaS from that post.

ok, thanks, i thought you knew a way for full synology support also for YNAB classic app, or maybe editing YNAB config file, idk.

I bought YNAB literally yesterday. I only realized what happend when my Android app said "YNAB classic" had an update.

Ironically enough I'm the very person who posted this, way back in 2012:

(I had the free student license before.)

If you purchased YNAB 4 within the last six months, then we’ll do what we’ve done with every new version launch.

If you purchased:
1 month ago, you get 11 months free
2 months ago...10 months free
3 months ago...9 months free
4 months ago...8 months free
5 months ago...7 months free
6 months ago...6 months free

You may be able to take advantage of that.

Also, all YNAB 4 users get a 10% discount, or $45 a year. If you save $5 a month, that's 3 months of float time per year.

Not going to use an online web app to handle my budget.

Look safe as ♥♥♥♥!

I don't know how did you get your knowledge about cyber security but safe as hearts doesn't sound very scientific to me

I contacted YNAB support by e-mail about this and they said since I bought it through Steam, I would be eligble for the lifetime discount and the free time I just have to provide them proof of my purchase through steam, which I am about to do, so drop them an e-mail :)

Still they should have done a Steam version.
If they REALLY want to get into a subscriptions system, Steam allow that.

They're trying to get away from using anyone else's infrastructure. That's the reason for this move.

They can use Steam infrascructure WITHOUT forcing the use of Steam once installed.
Several software does that and still sell their own on their own store too and all works fine.
