  • I’m thinking about moving my Nextcloud calendars and addressbooks to Baikal. Why? Because I like one “tool for one thing” better than “one tool for everything”.

    Small update: Today I moved to Baikal successfully.

    It’s missing some features, I noticed.

    1. There are no shared addressbooks, so a shared user is needed. Addressbooks also cannot be read-only.
    2. There is no birthday calendar. There is a Python script for MySQL to run from cron. I ported it to PostgreSQL today.






  • I agree. Nextcloud is not so great. It does too many things. It’s still OK to use it, because it replaces file sharing in the cloud and you can have your own addressbook or contacts without sacrificing privacy in the Google cloud.

    Nothing special. It just runs and updates well. It also tells you what you forgot to do.

    I thought about using a dedicated addressbook, calendar and file sharing, but I’d need to have some time and at the moment it’s just running without headaches.
