Same. The basic stuff works and i managed to replace recipes with nextcloud cookbook but its quite heavy caldav notes and tasks support on ios would be wonderful but i couldnt find something that integrates into our workflow and systems.

Home Assistant was not on my radar. Thank you!

I currently rent a VM running nextcloud for family use. It currently shows its age with all the nescessary tinkering to keep it current. (also have to use the hosters db which is … difficult)

I’m thinking along the same lines…

a smallffpc at home, dyn to my home ip, wireguard as a vpn into my home, The server runs: radicale caldav carddav, ksmbd family photos.

my main problem: this needs to work on ios and android and linux and windows, reliably, which it currently does not in my test setup.

currently lacking a solution for recipe sharing and shopping list sharing. Maybe setting up nextcloud on my own server is less of a hassle_…

Im also sorry to hear about sneezy mcglassfaces mom. The BBS I hung out on always referred to people who always act on “bigger is better” and hated anything unusual/ foreign as “Reptiles” because well reptiles behave the same way. I think we all thought it was clever and funny. Fast forward a few years the place is full of people apparently really believing reptiles in human skin suits are real and control the world. Similar thing i saw happening a few years later with the warhammer community. Talk about people unable to read sarcasm.
