Self Hosted Calendar
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.
What is the "proper" way to navigate migration from another service (all photos are already on the server)
I got immich with SSO up and running. It runs like a dream compared to Photoprism and is simple enough for me, but also has necessary features like user accounts.
There is one thing I couldn't find in the docs:
I already have a library of 5000 photos and 150 videos on my server that sync to my phone with Syncthing to 4 different directories (one for each phone I took the photos on) in Immich. Right now I have that directory as an external library, but I don't think this is the "right way."
My goal:
- No duplicates between phone app and desktop app
- Don't have to re-upload every image from my phone as my network is 100/30 mbps
- Am able to manage my photos from the Immich app and web app (deleting photos that will propagate between devices)
Can I just map the "Upload" folder to that syncthing photo base folder and get parity between my phone and my server? Or do I have to re-upload everything from my phone? Or am I waiting for a feature that doesn't quite exist yet? I noticed some feature discussions about photo hashing and de-duplication.
I tried asking in a discussion on the repo, but nobody answers those much.
Best way to use Immich with my photos on Nextcloud?
I would like to try Immich and at the same time I am already using Nextcloud to sync all my photos from my phone. Is there a way to keep my photos on Nextcloud?
