Introduce the option for additional subcategory levels, allowing for nested categories to better organize expenses.

Switched to Lunch Money because of the cross-currency support, but I enjoy flexible budgeting like Monarch employs, meaning that you can just throw certain spending categories on budgeted into one large "flexible spending group." This allowed us to skip setting specific budgets for each "flexible" category, as the software grouped all spending from that group into one number, corresponding to one "flexible group" budget, while still allowing us to track spending for individual category lines within the "flexible group"
Nested subcategories that allow you to group/track expenses without having to set a budget for each line seems a good substitute for this feature!

Subcategories with more than 1 level

I have a strong need for more than 1 level for subcategories.
For example, here is the nested list of categories and subcategories and sub-sub categories that I use:
Auto and Rideshare > Automobile > Car Usage > Fuel
Auto and Rideshare > Automobile > Car Usage > Tolls
Auto and Rideshare > Automobile > Car Usage > Car Wash
Auto and Rideshare > Automobile > Car Required > Car Insurance
Auto and Rideshare > Automobile > Car Required > Car Taxes
Auto and Rideshare > Automobile > Car Required > Car Payment
Auto and Rideshare > Automobile > Car Depreciation and Lease
Auto and Rideshare > Automobile > Car Maintenance
Auto and Rideshare > Automobile > Tickets and Citations
Auto and Rideshare > Automobile > Parking
Auto and Rideshare > Rideshare > Uber
Auto and Rideshare > Rideshare > Lyft
Auto and Rideshare > Rideshare > Taxi

Yes, I was looking for an ability to sub-categories as many items I want. Grouping limits to have just one category inside group.
For example:
Housing -> Utilities -> Water/Gas

Raj Thummar, there is already a concept of category groups that contain categories (or sub-categories).
Did you think that there should be more levels, perhaps?
