Yeah…I can’t emphasize enough that I really, really, really want EteSync (or something like it) to succeed. But stuff like calendar changes disappearing has caused actual, real-world issues in my life this year (twice!), and that’s why I caution against a full recommendation.
Gotta love gatekeeping.
The iOS app is poor in terms of UX, but I’ve actually had more trouble with the desktop bridge (Windows / macOS, can’t speak to Linux) in terms of reliability. It is the platform that most frequently doesn’t sync calendar changes - a serious issue. Android is the only platform where things worked basically as expected, hence my original suggestion to keep that recommendation.
I have never disputed that.
Right, I don’t dispute that either.
I simply said that: based on my own multi-year experience with several platforms, the many others reporting the same issues as me over that time span (on Git, Reddit, and even here!), and the total lack of development / support on those issues, EteSync recommendations should have a disclaimer that platforms other than Android may have issues and don’t have active development / support.
I do not think that is an unreasonable appraisal of the situation. I appreciate you discussing this, but nothing you’ve said here is at odds with that summary … if anything you’ve confirmed it by saying that (a) iOS has issues and (b) it’s unreasonable to expect support.
