Hi guys, I am searching for a self hosted chore app where I can track chores for my household. I considered nextcloud chore so far, but it is not reliably maintained.

The software shuld be able for recurring chores with custom time patterns (timespans) that can be marked as compleded.

What software comes to your mind for chores?

Grocy if we are talking big enough to host.

Then bring it into HA for simple dashboard access (or to clear events triggered by something else, like starting the robo vac, or a button for when the diaper pail bag is taken out, etc)

While it’s fantastic software, it’s probably a relative cannon to shoot at his problem. Maybe there’s a way around this, but I’ve found the necessary management, curation and bookkeeping that was necessary for it too be useful to be just way too much to be worth it. I mean it’s fun for some, including me to a degree, but not too this extent.

I really dont find the management intensive at all, I mostly don’t think about it tbh. Thats why I caveated on self hosting, if its simple just an app will do. The moment you add in complication (multiple users for example) it starts to make quite a bit of sense. Most of those tasks also have a related consumable (and another task as a result, such as ordering diapers to use my diaper pail example). Even the robovac example goes to consumables, like replacing the filter/brushes/etc. Or cleaning the sheets means laundry detergent, etc.

Unless you mean the grocery portion, which I do while shopping to check needed items off the list and set the stock (simple scan from the phone).

We’re using a self hosted habitica here, it’s not perfect by any means, but it gamifies it which is what we need here.

Like like what I was looking for.

I’ve tried it out now too, and it looks promising.

I’ve been considering Donetick for this same purpose.

This looks like what I have searched for.

Try nextcloud deck then. Less features, but for me it’s enough.

Zenlix@lemmy.ml on 05 Oct 20:18 collapse

But Deck did not have recurring tasks.

Superproductivity. Opensource, selfhosting possible, actively developed. Amazing all around. Just a bit overkill for this usecase, but not in a bad way :)
