Hi everyone

I’m trying to degoogle as much as possible. I’ve heard about this thing called calDAV and cardDAV but I have no idea how to use it.

With radicale, do I need to install some other somewhere in order to use it?

I’m just looking for basic useage for myself only at this stage. I’d like to be able to self host my own calendar and contacts. Is radicale appropriate for this?

Is it safe to self host a calendar?

Can a self hosted calendar still send and receive invites to other calendars?

Any help greatly appreciated, thank you

    No, you just need to install Radicale. That’s it. calDAV and cardDAV are widely used formats available as an option with basically any calendar.

    Oh, I see your problem. You don’t host your calendar. You host a service that is used to synchronise all the regular calendars you already use over different devices.

    Or are you at the moment using Google’s calendar in browser only?
