I moved from Joplin to Obsidian and am very happy with the move, but it's not FOSS

Outstanding. Ya know, I was actually starting to not hate that guy this season, and now he blew it.

So I could get some and just release it literally anywhere there are people, at least one of whom would inevitably call the fire department and they'd come out and waste a bunch of resources looking for non-existent propane? Huh.

I am single with no children. Having no reason to switch to a "normal person" schedule on my days off, I simply don't. Combine that with blackout curtains and I don't have many problems. Occasionally I need to engage with a business who for some God-awful reason insists on doing work before noon, and those days suck, but otherwise I'm good.

This looks quite promising, thank you! I'll be trying that.

[–] chriscrutch@lemm.ee 2 points 11 months ago

I will look into that, thank you.

If I ever come up with something, I'll let you know.

Interesting, the one time I tried Nextcloud I was using the AIO version, maybe it'll be slightly less onerous to use the other one. I may give that a shot. Thank you!

I checked out the documentation for that, I can't find in there anywhere anything about e-mail reminders for events. Additionally, it looks like setting up recurring events (like monthly bills or repeated appointments) isn't possible. It seems more like a business booking solution than a personal calendaring thing. Thank you though!

Yeah, I've tried most of the servers listed there. None of the servers have email functionality (beyond invitations). I haven't found a client that does either. I understand that Thunderbird used to have it, but doesn't any more. Strange that an email application can't email. Hahahaha.

 

I'm trying to de-Google my life and self-host more. One tricky point with me is calendaring. I can get a CalDav server running and syncing with my Android phone without much hassle, but I haven't yet found a server or client that can send e-mail reminders for events, rather than just pop-up notifications.

I've been told to try Nextcloud. I tried installing it but it's overkill for me, and I don't want to deal with setting up a domain. Surely there can't be exactly one CalDav option that can send email reminders. But I've never heard anyone say anything other than "Nextcloud."

 

I'm looking for a community where discussion about the Lemmy software itself is discussed. I have a feature request and although I can't see any such request on the Lemmy github, it seems nearly impossible to me that no one has asked for it yet. I want to chat about it with other Lemmy users before determining if I'm way out in left field or not.

 

I've been seeing a dog food ad that includes one of those pads with the buttons that talk, I was curious to hear about them from people who actually have them.
