Hi, everyone!

For several years, I’ve relied on NextCloud as a substitute for Google services. The time has come to say goodbye and move on in life. I’ve decided to replace my NextCloud instance with separate services for files, calendar, photos, notes, and to-do lists.

I’ve already found alternatives for all services, except for the calendar.

Does anyone have experience with FOSS projects that would allow me to self-host a calendar? I’m looking for something that supports CalDAV, has its own (pretty) user interface (webui), caters to multiple users, and supports multiple calendars.

And if anyone is interested in the alternatives I’ve found for each NextCloud component, here’s the list:

NextCloud Files -> File Browser NextCloud Notes -> Joplin NextCloud Photos -> Immich NextCloud Tasks -> Vikunja NextCloud Calendar -> ???___

Edit:

In the end, I used Radicale software. I deployed it in a docker container and it worked almost right out of the box.

    Nope, Joplin saves as .md files but those are clearly NOT markdown. I switched after I got burned.

      Except for the metadata at the bottom, looks a LOT like markdown to me…

        That’s the point: that is not markdown file. Most of the text is markdown, but try editing it with a different editor …

        Try back and forth between md editors…

        You end up with a mess. I want md for interoperability, and this is not good.

          Okay, that’s fair, what editors are you using?

          I don’t complain much about Joplin because it has apps for every platform and doesn’t encode your notes in some SQLite DB + proprietary format or some other hard to access situation. Not that it looks good, but at least you’re locked into some subscription/format/limitation like in Standard Notes. I wish Joplin looked as good as Standard Notes, especially on iOS.

            I am using markor on android and silverbullet (web) on anything else.

            Joplin was OK, but the android editor felt sluggish and the only available web GUI was… Meh. And I still had to use WebDAV to sync. And I lost all my data once due to how Joplin “think” sync should be done.

            Now using syncthing with markor&silverbullet. Nice combo, and I can still access all my notes over WebDAV anyway.
