Does anyone know why there's no desire to see a working standard (protocol) for calendar/tasks?

It's clear that CalDAV doesn't function consistently across devices (and does seem to be dying as a standard). If you work across different devices/OS it's virtually impossible to get things set up seamlessly. Companies and developers of task apps seem happy to create silos and not look at interoperability.

If you want to self-host, it's too hard to do this and you really are limited to a tiny number of options.

What’s your set up with CalDav? What devices do you run it on?

I use the tchapi docker image for the caldav server (die to the LDAP support for the user Auth) and davx5 for the android integration.

In Desktop thunderbird already have a native integration and with iPhone is also working fine.

No problems so far in almost a year, they work reliable and smooth. The only point I somehow miss is the lack of push notifications from the server to the devices, but it is not a deal breaker from me
