Calendar / event / sync / invites (aussie.zone)

Recently made the switch to Graphene and am trying to get my main email away from outlook.com

What's everyone using for calendar event invites?

I have a mixture of some events that only I need to see, but others I send and receive invites to people using gmail, outlook etc.

Currently trying out free Proton, but it's a bit limited. For example if I make a recurring event there seems to be no way to edit or remove a single recurrence. Also would like to be able to use say simple calendar widgets with it. Edit, also discovered that invites sent from gmail to proton simply don't arrive.

Happy for a paid service provided I'm not treated as a product for advertisers to market to.

Have just signed up to give it a shot.

Silly question, but is there a way to create an event and invite people from an Android app? (Like outlook)

I've currently got k9, davx5. and simple calendar installed.

I created a test event in simple calendar and included my other email addresses in the attendees section. However no invite has been sent by they looks. I checked the posteo webmail page and I can see the event has been synced, but with no one invited.

I also use K-9 and the default calendar and I haven't found a way to do that. But it's an Android limitation.

Perhaps something to look forward to when K-9 finally becomes Thunderbird for Android next month?

I hope they can marry IMAP and Caldav together in one app that can handle event invitations.

Not sure that I can live without that ability for my use case.

Guessing other providers with caldav will have the same issue for the time being.
