Do you have some specific features that are โmust haveโ for you? Iโm using the calendar from Proton (considering that Iโm using their services as a bundle for mail+drive, I thought โwhy notโ). So far I havenโt found any issues with that, but Iโm not a โcalendar heavyโ user.
My only minor gripe is, that their ipadOS application is just a port from the iOS, not a full-fledged tablet version.
My main use case is to share with calendar availability with some close friends (easier to make plans when we can at least roughly see when everyone is available). In Nextcloud it's only possible with other users of your Nextcloud server, there is no federation.
The Github issue is still open: https://github.com/nextcloud/server/issues/1440
In the mentioned Proton calendar, you can share your calendars, but NOT when using the free plan.
So I would say - if youโre already using Proton โsuiteโ, you can give it a go. But if you donโt then I donโt think it makes sense to pay just for their calendar feature. Itโs pretty basic (which is sufficient for me, but not for everyone)
I see, thanks!
Tuta Calendar from Tutanota.
Download and create a calendar on: https://anytype.io/
And then you can share it for collaboration. Theres a bit of a learning curve but you can use it for alot more rhan calender and it works very well
Interesting, I see they are based in Switzerland https://anytype.io/faq
The free tier looks nice https://doc.anytype.io/anytype-docs/memberships/monetization
I use calendar.online and it worked very good for my purposes, nice intuitive UI
I think I'm really going to give it a try, it looks promising!
I use a 1 Euro Ionos Server with Baikal. It's got enough recourses for hosting a RSS solution as well.
Solf-hosted Baikal. Works like a charm.
Your comment made me start to think about self-hosting. What hardware are you using?
I'm running it on a "normal" server, which hosts many VMs. Baikal being one of them. But it would also run on any potato or a raspy. It's not very demanding. Also was simple to set up.
I'm going to look look into installing mrchromebox on my old Chromebook and using that. Should work right?
I dunno the specifics of the chromebook or mrchromebook (i assume some linux?), but I'd take a wild guess with: YEAH. But when working it syncs nicely with e.g. thunderbird or any android-calendar (via davx5 foss) or basically any DAV-able app. If it's just for at-home, then you don't need much maintenance, if it shall be reachable from the outside, it should be a bit more hardened and maintained, obviously.
Yeah basically Linux server software for chromebook. What do you mean with maintenance?
keeping the box up2date, and baikal itself. As said, if it's reachable from the outside that should be mandatory unless you don't care :)
Ah got it, thanks!
For those who prefer apps, there's OurCal, developed by an English company. I've just started using it.
The application looks quite ergonomic.
Thank you!
Is it compatible with open calendar formats? The webpage shows Google, Outlook and Apple, obviously we are trying to avoid those at the moment ๐
Also, you might want to check your language settings, your comment was taggued as French, some people might not see it. !languagesettings@lemmy.zip can help, I think there is also something at !support@jlai.lu
Thank you !
Yes, you can link the classic American calendars, but you can also use the calendar provided by the app, which is not linked to these services.
As for the language problem, I'll look into it, but maybe it has something to do with the fact that I'm French in a French Instance ? I'm new to Lemmy.
Ah, good to know, maybe I'll give it a try!
I found the post, it should be more clear, feel free to comment there too: https://jlai.lu/post/16302866
If you don't see any comments in that post when being logged in, you can read the content from here: https://lemmy.ca/post/40385955
I'm trying with "Auto" language setting, I hope it's better.
Still French, but it's fine for now. If one day you encounter a community without any posts while there should be some, remember to try to update them again
Thank you, it's important if I want to contribute to the BuyFromEU community. I'm going to investigate further !
Ah, now it seems good, your comment was not tagged !
I use https://mailbox.org from Germany
Can you share your availability with other people?
I suppose so, but I haven't tried that feature myself, so I'm not completely sure.
Ok, thanks!
I use Fossify calendar. It works really well until now!
Can you share it?
I am subscribed to my gf's google calendar, but unfortunately I cannot share mine with her.
