Short description

Peergos Calendar is E2EE, self-hostable and fully open source

Why I think this tool should be added

Unlike all the other listed calendar options, is both fully open source (including the server) and self-hostable. You can share individual events or entire calendars, including with write access. There’s 2FA, import/export, and recurring events. The number of calendars you can make is unlimited (the server can’t see how many calendars you have, or even how many events).

Being built-on Peergos, it is decentralized - meaning you can share with any user on any server, or via secret link to anyone. Under the hood, events are just standard ical files in peergos, and calendars are just folders.

Yes. But just to buy that for claendar is a tall order. Still a good product overall though and is worth it if you use all of what it offers than only buying for calendar.

But if one has the money, go nuts.

you can selfhost it btw.

Ah yes. Fair point. But if you don’t have the know how/skillset - it’s hard.

I’d like to learn - so if you have any resources, please share.

We (Peergos) are considering adding a “calendar plan” which is 10x cheaper (with 10x less storage). Would that be more appealing?

Oh hell yeah!

The more customizable options for what product you want and how much of it, the better.

If I were in your ecosystem, I’d buy the whole thing. But I have current commitments with other products.

Edit: I was just looking at Peergos a few days ago. Played with the demo and everything. I’m still considering.

To be clear, we wouldn’t be restricting people to the calendar (we actually can’t technically because the server doesn’t know what files are), rather just limiting the storage to something like 20 GB.

20 gigs is more than enough for everyday use. Most of the files are always archived elsewhere for long term permanent storage.

Overall, I think it should be added. If it is rejected, I’d like to learn why. As it stands, I see no problem but I am also not a technical expert in the matter.

I’ll check back in a day or two to see what happens here.

I don’t believe there are mobile apps for Peergos, which is how I mainly update calendar and receive notifications of events. Is there any planned?

Also is there CalDAV support? I use Thunderbird on desktop.

We are working on mobile apps right now yes. The PWA does work as well as an app though.

We don’t currently have caldav support, but we do have a webdav bridge which I think we can extend to caldav.
