I am single with no children. Having no reason to switch to a "normal person" schedule on my days off, I simply don't. Combine that with blackout curtains and I don't have many problems. Occasionally I need to engage with a business who for some God-awful reason insists on doing work before noon, and those days suck, but otherwise I'm good.

This looks quite promising, thank you! I'll be trying that.

[–] chriscrutch@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

I will look into that, thank you.

If I ever come up with something, I'll let you know.

Interesting, the one time I tried Nextcloud I was using the AIO version, maybe it'll be slightly less onerous to use the other one. I may give that a shot. Thank you!

I may have to try that one. Just looking on the website, it doesn't explicitly say there's the possibility of emailed event reminders, but it does say that there's an integrated client so it seems like there's a possibility. Thank you!

I checked out the documentation for that, I can't find in there anywhere anything about e-mail reminders for events. Additionally, it looks like setting up recurring events (like monthly bills or repeated appointments) isn't possible. It seems more like a business booking solution than a personal calendaring thing. Thank you though!

Yeah, I've tried most of the servers listed there. None of the servers have email functionality (beyond invitations). I haven't found a client that does either. I understand that Thunderbird used to have it, but doesn't any more. Strange that an email application can't email. Hahahaha.

Any coding is well above my skill level. Thank you, though.

Unless I'm missing something, there doesn't seem to be any functionality for email reminders either on the server side or client side for them. I tried Etesync once, although it has been a bit.

Oh, isn't that interesting. I already run a Pi-Hole but I had never thought of doing that with a custom entry. I suppose that would work, wouldn't it?

I really dislike that everything in this thread is pushing towards Nextcloud after all. It seems like it should be easier to get email reminders. It should really be somewhere in-between "use Google" and "run Nextcloud and buy a domain name and use a custom piece of hardware to run your own DNS server to which you have to add even more customizations to be able to run and sync the Nextcloud suite, most of which you'll never use."

It looks like I'm gonna call that my "second to last resort." I'm not a programmer or developer of any kind, and that looks pretty intense for me.
