I would like to have a central Calendar that I could sync everything to it, from my email calendars and my to do list, is there something like that selfhosted or not, that is FOSS?

Nextcloud, 100 percent. I’ve been running mine for years and highly recommend it.

I was thinking about that but I think Nextcloud is a bit too much for my needs

The AIO container is pretty effortless to run.

You can utilize how much or how little of Nextcloud’s features you need. Why do you think Nextcloud would be too much for you?

I had the idea that I had to install the whole solution

I currently use nextcloud + todo.txt

I don’t have my todos in my calendar (I think that may be what you’re asking for?), but both are solid systems.

I sync my todo.txt files via nextcloud. I use sleek on my desktop and ntodotxt on my phone.

I love todo-txt! As a heavy cli user it’s the quickest and easiest to use todo “system” I’ve found.

Yes, would be great if I have my day view. Problem is Nextcloud is way too much for my needs

Then, maybe, Baikal a Cal-/ Card-DAV server is what you are searching for.

What clients would you recommend with it?

Syncing the calendar db and Todo.txt file with syncthing should also be possible and would be a solution that doesn’t need a server at all.

My email calendars I leave alone, but I use caldav for personal calendar and tasks.

I use radicale as caldav server, and tasks.org on android and thunderbird on computer. Tasks.org works very well

I also use silverbullet (silverbullet.md) for more complex todo lists

I’m also using Radicale and I’ve landed on the Calengoo app because it can do both events and tasks in the same app. It’s amazingly customizable and it can sync directly if needed, bypassing the Android account system. If you buy it directly off the website you get a perpetual license that doesn’t depend on Google Play.

I got so excited about an app that would do both, went to App Store and got genuinely startled by how unpleasant it looked. I don’t understand when devs opt in to spend more time on custom styling when there are lots of properly designed libraries

It’s not good looking out of the box but you can customize it extensively. Give it a chance. I’m glad I put in the time, I ended with a calendar app that’s more suitable to my taste than anything else I’ve used before.

Radicale? https://radicale.org/v3.html I have not used it much myself yet. Its very minimal and focused on calendar stuff.

Really nice and comprehensive looking page. Should probably test drive that some day. Thanks.

I use Radicale for my calendars, reminders, and contacts precisely because of how minimal it is. It has been very reliable for me and is very easy to back up and restore since it is just files.
