  1. #Tech post...
    I keep my contacts in a #CardDAV address book on my own #Baikal #DAV server, and my Betterbird email app has no problem accessing this.

    What it can't do is merge 2 contacts!

    It's 2026, we almost have flying cars, how is merging contacts not possible?

  2. 🪆 Linux Begins Removing Support For Russia's Baikal CPUs

    「 Back in 2024, various kernel maintainers were removed due to their association to Russia on grounds of compliance requirements. That included some of the Russian Linux developers working on the Baikal CPU support.

    But due to sanctions they weren't able to get their chips manufactured by TSMC and ultimately Baikal Electronics entered bankruptcy 」

  4. Our group went all across and around the Olkhon Island, and we even got to do some ice skating on a smooth part of the lake.

    In these months the ice is thick enough for cars to drive on, so that's the main mode of transport. The drivers can be pretty crazy there, our guide told us some of them go upwards of 100 km/h on ice lol, that sounds very dangerous.

    But we also traveled on airboats a few times -- also a fairly unique experience.

  5. At the end of January we traveled to Lake Baikal with @bugaevc -- our first time there, and generally in such cold weather. Imagine plane landing at ~4 AM your time and the flight attendant announcing "Welcome to Irkutsk, the temperature outside is -40°" 😆

    We were well prepared though and had a great time! Lots of gorgeous scenery and a huge variety of ice types and formations. 1/2

  6. thanks to the tip by @trommelspeicher #baikal runs great and serves caldav :) the family calender now is nomore icloud :)

  7. Great, an amazing chain of events and maybe unfortunate UI design in resulted in me deleting our shared addressbook - server side from an ancient instance, no backups (no mercy) of course. My rescue attemps of copying contacts around in (why does 'export' make an effing lossy CSV without avatar!?) just made it worse, 50% of contacts now left.

    It's finally time to with and failsafes on my ...

  13. @_elena @shollyethan @yunohost @ilja Great guide, many thanks for sharing.

    Years ago (pre-cloud) I used to self host at home, but as the cloud grew there became little point in this d-i-y approach. But as you say, now the cloud has become such a bad place, the d-i-y approach is back in fashion again !

    I now self-host at home (again) :



    I'm now looking for a docs solution, probably onlyoffice.

    I've not come across yonohost before, so I'll follow with interest further parts of your series.

  14. I used the Sunday morning to upgrade my Baïkal instance to version 0.11.0 (if you experience issues with the MySQL connection afterwards, make sure to add the new required configuration entry mysql_ca_cert to your config).

    And I also used it to enable CardDAV (previously I solely used it as calendar via CalDAV) and moved all my contacts from iCloud to my own server. This was not as easy as […]

  15. okay hmm. I've now been extensively dogfooding #TasksOrg plus #Davx5 plus #Baikal as a lightweight #CalDAV backend for a couple weeks as part of my relaunch of personal task management, and I'm starting to think this would be a great subject for a video on the Surfhosting Peertube channel.

    I need to use it for a few more weeks though, because I'm still discovering things about the software and letting my usage patterns evolve.

    one cool thing that I think will make this useful is that I'm using Tasks.org (which is an Android app, despite the name) in at least three ways simultaneously: for tasks which repeat every single day, for a to-do list for the current day and upcoming days, and for a to-do list for various task domains which stretch up to several months into the future.

    I think this will make for a great video on how to use this admittedly complicated but very powerful #selfhosted task management system.

  16. Wasn't able to get to work so moved everything to a now working instance.

  17. Nice! works behind Proxy Manager when added some extra headers as stated here: github.com/NginxProxyManager/n

    Interestingly if you're connected, then remove the headers macOS Calendar continues to function. It's only when adding the account it fails.

    Tried the same headers for (with different redirects of course) but still no dice there.

    Next Cloud seems overkill for what I need, but I guess I'll be migrating then.

  18. Interesting! After updating to 15.7.2 the app wouldn't connect to my server anymore. Tried . and other third party apps worked just fine. Was reluctant to update iOS and iPadOS as I feared those would break as well. But they kept working.

    Just to test I installed NextCloud on another server that uses instead of and lo and behold: macOS Calendar connects just fine!

    But I need NPM to work...

  19. Ugh, updating the latest update for 15 broke . It was always finicky to get it to work but it has worked fine until now.

    Maybe I should look into setting up just for CalDAV... I think it supports CalDAV. But it also adds so much more I have no need for. I think 🙂.

  20. I #selfhost my tasks, calendars, and contacts with #baikal.

    In and of itself, this works quite well.

    I have issues with the tasks, though. I access them on my computers in #thunderbird, and on my #android with #davx5 and #tasksorg.

    The tasks often have differing tags and due dates across devices. Changes to the description and titles seem to be consistent, though.

    Is this perhaps a known shortcoming of either #caldav, baikal, DAVx5, or one of the apps? 🤔

  21. For the all people using #Nextcloud just for #caldav and #cardav have a look at opensource #baikal github.com/sabre-io/Baikal It's tiny, easy to setup and works great with #davx and #thunderbird

  22. CW: Russia's war of aggression against Ukraine

    #Belaya air base is located near #Irkutsk at Lake #Baikal in Eastern Sibiria, ca. 4,400km from Ukraine. Nevertheless, ukrainian forces were livestreaming the attack. 🚭

  23. Baïkal is now available at K&T Host for beta testing! Baïkal is a free and open-source CalDAV/CardDAV server.

    We're looking for beta testers to help us elevate our Baïkal hosting service to production quality.  If you're interested in Baïkal, this is a great opportunity to give it a try.

    What is the beta test?

    The beta test is a period in which we make a new application freely available for testing purposes.

    What do I get?

    You receive a working hosting account with Baïkal available.

    What do I do?

    You install, manage, and test out Baïkal's various features. Report any bugs or issues that you might run into.

    Then what?

    Once Baïkal hosting is ready for launch, you'll receive three months of free service. After that, you get 20% discount for the life of your Baïkal hosting service.

  24. Ok, I think I did it. It took all evening but I moved my email aliasing to Addy.io, my email to my domain providers's email hosting, my password manager to a self hosted Vaultwarden server, and I was already running Baikal for my contacts and calendars. No more Proton services for me.

    And a few other various ones I'm playing with. When my 2.5gb nics arrive, I'll also be setting up #opnsense for firewalling/routing.

    Oh, I also wanna try out #raspap and see how that does with a few of these sprinkled around the house when I get more next month, as they have WiFi.

    They are perfect for #k3s or #kubernetes.

  26. 1/2 I currently use a very good but still somewhat limited (also in terms of performance) shared #hosting service from Switzerland. I #selfhost #nextcloud #baikal, #linkace and others. In the future I'd like to self host #bitwarden, #matrix, #gitlab and #mastodon as well.

  27. Hello les Pouetteurs!

    Qui sait configurer #rainloop ou #sogo sur #yunohost pour atteindre le webmail #gandi

    Actuellement j'utilise #roundcube avec une surcharge dans un fichier local.inc.php pour aller taper sur mon webmail gandi…

    Oui mais voilà, #roundcube + #carddav (#baikal) me rendent une 503 lorsque me rends sur l'URL dédié aux mails
    Bref je tente autre chose…

    Pour le moment je n'ai pas réussi à configurer #sogo ou #rainloop pour récupérer mes mails de l'extérieur.
