A personal account of replacing Google Calendar with Nextcloud Calendar as part of a broader de-Googling and self-hosting journey. The author highlights privacy concerns with Google Calendar, including ad profiling and automatic event creation from Gmail. Nextcloud Calendar integrates with Nextcloud Tasks and Deck for task management, supports multi-user event sharing via contacts, and connects with Home Assistant via CalDAV for home automation triggers like dimming lights for movie nights. The author notes the setup is straightforward despite initial appearances.
