Your reality, sir, is lies and balderdash… and I’m delighted to say that I have no grasp of it whatsoever!

What is your foss server set up?
(I do actually run an ok calDAV using Next Cloud. I’m suggesting that things should be much easier to use across different OSes and apps and devices).
Thank you. This is the sort of thing I was looking for .
And your server/client combo probably require you to find some obscure forum post from 2009 and reading the man pages several times before you find that one specific fucking legacy parameter in some config file that has to be set.

Hmmm… I quickly emcountered guides for “workarounds” when DAV doesn’t work.
I have Nextcloud CalDAV working on iOS (the trick is to set up calendar and tasks separately). I can’t get Baikal Calendar to sync on ios.
This is what I was trying to get at: setting up calendar and task SHOULD be straightfoward and work across devices and OSes. It’s not.
You are probably the exception rather than the rule. Nextcloud, in my experience, is the only one that seems to work fairly well. Just look at the Issues on Github for apps that try to use CalDAV.
It’s more than the “proprietary apps”. It’s harder than it should be to simply sync calendar and tasks. The one that seems to work the most effectively is Nextcloud. By now there should be straightforward, easy to use (to host) solitions that just work.
I have tried hard to get Baikal to work across devices and had to admit defeat (works on some, not on others). I am running CalDAV most successfully using Nextcloud.
What’s your set up with CalDav? What devices do you run it on?
I was about to say this. Strange how you seem to be the only one (so far) to suggest this sensible solution.
I updated to 7.2.2 this morning and it prompted me to update Plex and then gave a message about what to do if Plex couldn’t see my library. It seems to be ok.
Thanks for the info. These sort of things are always difficult. A bit like finding out a favourite musician breaks a boycott or has dodgy ideas but makes great music.
I wasn’t aware of the issues with the Lemmy devs. Some of the original posts about them don’t seem accessible. Is the issue because they are pretty pro-Chinese government?
It works fine. Not many videos there - but it’s early days. It doesn’t seem to be a desktop app. Works through the Loops app.
Canvases as a visual index/MOC to collect notes on a specific topic. That’s my main use.
I have used them as a cork board for notes when planning writing (much like Scrivener). I’ve even got templates that have images of an index card to type over.
Nanny state etc. What do people want? A government that looks after them? The freedom to vote means the freedom to die of chicken-egg-poisoning. Dying of food poisoning is a fundamental British value that woke experts will have to rip from my stinking hands. (or something like that.)
You could be right. I listened to a Tory minister on the radio today talking about ending anonymity on the internet and - more interestingly - about silo-ing parts of the internet so that certain groups, such as children, could only access certain “versions” of the internet. I wonder whether that’s the longer-term agenda.
I grew up with even less access. At school we used paper and ticker-tape to program computers. And there was no tv (which was black and white anyway) during the day. Those were the days. Boring as fuck!
Thank you for sharing those links. I’ve just spent some time reading pages on your wiki. It’s great. You write very clealy about each tool/service. How you’ve done it seems an excellent way of reflecting on what you do. I’ll be consulting your wiki in future. I’m going to follow your guidance on setting up a reverse proxy as a start.
