I use OnlyOffice and enjoy it. I do notice some fancy features missing but as I’m not a power user it doesn’t bother me. I’ve opened OnlyOffice docx files in MS Office and vice versa many times with no issues ever. I’ve also installed MS fonts on my Linux distro and they work in OnlyOffice. I don’t notice it pushing online features like somebody else said

Not normal for me

I see. Thank you

That’s good to know. I’ll look into the Docker image. Thank you

I’m not opposed to tried and true simple solutions. I think my wife would find it much easier with an automated system however. I really need a way for people to pay for their memberships and keep track of that and I have no background with this stuff. I think having a system that’s already designed for this would make opening the gym less daunting. I appreciate the thought

Someone else mentioned ERPnext too. It looks interesting. Certainly a possibility. Thank you

I am confused as to what this is exactly. Is it some type of operating system that makes installing certain software easy like Docker or something?

I’ll keep them in mind when I design my network. Thank you

Wow, Akaunting looks really great. It seems simple and upgradable if my needs change over time. I have the ability to self host and even make a one time payment instead of subscribing to their services if I want. Thank you!

I did see the subscriptions module. Once you add enough modules it becomes a paid service. I have yet to find info on if Odoo is subscription based or a one time payment. I don’t mind paying for a software but do not want a subscription service.

This looks to be just for writing out workout routines, not a client management software. It might be useful one day so thank you anyways

There’s a lot to look into there. It covers quite a bit so it could work. I’ll research this for sure. Thank you a lot!

I understand the payment will have to connect to the internet and be outsourced but I want all my customer data to stay on my server

I don’t yet know the scope of everything I might need, but right now I believe that a customer management system is the focus. A way to input their details and payment information to have an automatic recurring membership.

I don’t think I really need a way for them to view their account as it won’t have any fancy features. I just need to know that they are a member and have a membership renewal. They can sign up and cancel in person or over the phone (I’m not making it disgustingly hard for people to cancel like the large gyms).

On top of that I would imagine it would be nice for the software to keep track of my total number of patrons and thus a total income amount

Kodi via LibreElec on a RaspberryPi in a Flirc case with the Flirc remote.

Streaming pirated content used to bother me but now I see it as these streaming companies steal my data, give me ads after I pay for the service, and if I “purchase” something it’s not actually mine, not DRM free, and they have the tendency to remove that so called purchased content due to licensing issues.

Thank you. That would make the most sense. Would still be nice to hear the commentor’s reasons

Whatever the commenter deems it’s definition, I would like to hear why they said he’s an idiot

Why do you say he’s an idiot?

He also made Bitcoin legal tender

That’s awesome!
