Hello friends!

My first attempt at a selfhosting project is up and running.

My goal was to make a private email and calendar system for my family. As it is private, as in we only email each other, I don’t have to worry about delivery blocks or spam. The system needs to support 12 users. Turned out it was easier than I though it would be!

Here is my stack:

Right now we are using the native android calendar app but I would love suggestions for a better calendar app.

Happy Hosting!

    My first attempt at a selfhosting project is up and running.

    That’s awesome. Doesn’t it feel good when everything works?

    Thunderbird Mobile

    It really gripes me that Thunderbird hasn’t released an iOS compatible app.

    Thinkpad T480

    There is a lot of discussion whether to leave the battery in when using a laptop as a server. I think the consensus is that you cap the charge at 60% to 80%. Sometimes the configuration for this is in your BIOS, and sometimes you have to do it manually if possible. The reasoning being, so you aren’t constantly charging the battery to it’s max limit and causing a ‘spicy pillow’ which would be a fire hazard.

    Rock on with yo’ bad self bro!

    I often recommend mailinabox for the same thing…

    On android: have you tried Thunderbird with davx5 as the connector?
