Recomendations for Calender app (feddit.uk)

Hi all.

Currently using microsoft products on a work laptop however I'm looking for an open source alternative for a calendar app.

At a min. I would want to it work on android and/or BOTH windows 11 and Linux Mint (so it would cover usage for both partner and myself). I'm a 'plug and play' sort of person when it comes to Linux so nothing too complicated.

If it can sync between devices that would be great but not a deal breaker in any way.

All other functionality is fine to be bare bones, I don't need it to do reminders or send email, just a basic calendar

Any suggestions and thanks all.

*edit. Spelling.

I would reccomend any CalDav compatible Client like Fossify Calendar for Android or Thunderbird for Desktop or anything that comes with your Distro really. Works offline without any special setup.

Syncing is the "tricky" part. If you plan to self host Radicale comes to mind. Otherwise you might want to look into Nextcloud as a service or Etesync for the privacy minded.

Edit: ~~Simple Calendar~~ -> Fossify Calendar

+1 for Simple Calendar (now Fossify Calendar) synced through Caldav - Nextcloud instance

Oh I actually switched to Fossify Calendar a while back. But the old name still sticks... fixed it.
