@iznogoud Here are some screenshots. Note the choices to Add a "Calendar" or "Subscription Calendar". Adding a (normal) Calendar *is for iCloud only*. There is no drop-down menu if you tap "Account - iCloud" in the second screenshot, allowing, say, a CalDAV calendar instead.

Especially note that 3rd screenshot (of the #iPadOS Calendar app) showing that "Add Subscription Calendar" must be read-only. The word "CalDAV" is not anywhere to be seen (as though to try to erase the very word "CalDAV" from the common parlance), but a CalDAV URL can indeed be used. The implication here is that a remote #CalDAV #calendar can't be accessed read-write. Which is true in that app.

Aus ästhetischen Gründen fuhr ich zwischendurch zweigleisig: Projekte in #Things, Kleinkram in Apple #Erinnerungen. Machte mich irre.

Also mal Erinnerungen only. Es ist sehr mächtig geworden, hält aber wegen proprietärem Quatsch keine Standards mehr ein (#CalDAV). Die Bedienung der Apps ist außerdem gruselig, und auf Mac ist die Schriftgröße nicht anpassbar auf meine alten Augen (die App ist bei Bedienhilfen außen vor). (2/8)

I think doing a mindful assessment of Thunderbird and whatever uhh other first-line desktop calendar apps for Linux that I can find with #CalDAV and task support vis-a-vis how they interact with tasks created by Tasks.org (Android) ...... is on the agenda for this coming week. I need to get this done. I need a phone-plus-desktop solution for calendar CRUD that works with my tasks app and calendar app on Android sufficiently gracefully that I can tolerate it.

I have been looking for a drop-in replacement for Google's Android implementation of reminders for like 6 years. I started de-Googling that long ago (wow) and one of the first things I pulled off Google was my calendar and contacts. anyway a lot has changed in 6 years so maybe I'll find something.

preliminary indications: Thunderbird is not giving good vibes, I added a task on my phone and it popped up a window so I could dismiss like 4 weeks worth of upcoming reminders 😬 #PIM #selfhosting

I was always surprised why there is not a way to sync #calendars and #contacts in #android without an app.
Although there are FOSS apps that work well, I'd expect that such a basic feature would be something the OS would do out of the box, specially considering the OS already provides an abstraction for "accounts".
For #degoogled #androidROM it makes even more sense, since most likely users will sync contact and calendar from a "custom" #caldav #carddav service.

#OpenNote has some serious backup options, and even security options password protection.

All of the notes are contained inside a database and have to be exported, but this just adds to the effectiveness of the app.

Rather than relying on a flat file system, what you get is faster access to your notes.

That they are periodically backed up is nice. That the synchronization feature is #CalDAV kind of rules, because you have options in your providers.

@ndw I've been a happy customer of #Fastmail (they're on Mastodon, too: @fastmail) since January 2018, and can comfortably recommend them if you're looking for a solid email host.
They're based in #Australia, and have full support for #IMAP, #CalDAV, #CardDAV, as-well as #JMAP if your tool(s) supports that. I like that they only do email and do it well. No ever-expanding product suite of tools I don't really need, nor any confusion on who the customer is. Nice and straight-forward :).

Hey besties,

Weiß jemand ob das bei #CalDAV ein Standard ist oder ein Apple Ding?

Wenn ich einen geteilten Kalender hab, und die zweite Person trägt dann etwas ein bzw. bearbeitet einen Eintrag, bekomme ich dann eine Benachrichtigung?

Ich möchte den Laptop auf #Linux umstellen und dabei einen Android/Outlook-Kalender (beides offline) synchronisieren (bisher: #myphoneexplorer)

An sich scheint das ja möglich aber es sollen die Kategorien und Farben der Einträge mitgesynct werden. So fällt #Thunderbird leider aus.

Ich hatte auch schon #Nextcloud mit #CalDAV auf #Raspberry versucht, aber ein Update hat mir alles zersch*ssen und ich kam nicht weiter.

Hat jemand eine Idee oder ein ähnliches Problem?

The #OpenWebCalendar has a new #UI!

You can head over to open-web-calendar.hosted.quell and try it out:

- #edit the #calendar AND see it updating
- #encryption protects #private calendars and the #password
- #CalDAV support
- Change the size to see how it works on other screens

In the picture, the URL to the Personal CalDAV calendar is encrypted and the events show up.

Technically, I really enjoyed #flexbox and #CSS variables i.e. for the dynamic resizing.
