This week, we added an unusual feature to ChronoLink:

You can now use our #CalendarSynchronization service to create calendar events for the #birthdays of your Google Contacts. For details (including the answer to "Why would one need that when Google offers similar functionality?"), see chronolink.app/userguide/syste.

Join our free public beta, no strings attached!

Si buscáis una alternativa a Google Calendar podéis probar con Fossify Calendar, en F-Droid. Nada de crear cuentas, ni alojar tus datos en la nube. Creas una copia de seguridad (o activas la copia automática) y la guardas donde quieras.

Además, puedes tener varios calendarios para mantener las cosas separadas, y hasta la fecha (y llevo bastante con ella) funciona perfectamente.

I'm looking for a reliable (preferably EU) alternative to #Gmail. 📨📬

Uuugh I've been putting it off for YEARS, because it's such a hassle 😩, but with #Google happily changing the Gulf of Mexico's name and now #GoogleCalendar removing cultural observances such as Pride Month, Black History Month, Women's History Month and Holocaust Remembrance day... I finally need to move my email from Gmail to a more ethical alternative.

Recommendations anyone? No selfhosting pls. 😊

CNBCGoogle Calendar no longer includes start of Black History Month, Pride MonthGoogle Calendar has removed reference to observances such as the beginning of Black history Month on Feb. 1, and Women's History Month on March 1.

#UnplugTrump - Tipp8:

Mailbox.org beinhaltet ab 2,5€/Monat sogar das Teilen von Dateien per Link und ein Online-Office.

Marketing piece from Proton

I use ProtonMail and Proton Calendar. They're not perfect but not bad. More importantly, they're not Google, which I continue to trust less with my data as time progresses.

そのうち、#Vivaldi :vivaldi_red: のタブグループのさらに上位概念のワークスペースとか、タブバーをサイドに縦置きで表示するみたいな #UI#Chrome にも搭載される日は来そう(それぞれ、#Safari#Edge に似た機能がすでに搭載されてるし)だけど、
あくまで個人的な予想として、タブタイリングとか Web パネルは #Chrome (というか #Google)の思想上、採用されづらいだろうな、と思う :tony_grinning:

#Google は Web サービスである以上、ある程度ユーザーを囲い込むという力が働くし、その観点で同じ #Google のサービスをひとつの画面内で併用するならまだしも(そういう機能はすでに #Gmail のサイドバーに #GoogleCalendar を表示するとかサービス上に機能がある)、#Google 以外のサービスを一緒にひとつの画面に並べて併用できるみたいな自由を、Web ページより上のブラウザー層でユーザーが手にすると、必然的に Web サービスとしての #Google はユーザーを囲い込みづらくなるはず :tony_normal:

厳密には、違うサービスを併用することは今の #Chrome だって、ただの Web ブラウザーだからできるんだけど、どうしたってタブの切り替えは必要になるし、「#Gmail で同じ画面内でサイドにカレンダーとかメモとか置くなら #GoogleCalender とか #GoogleKeep とか #GoogleTasks 使っておこう」ってなるギリギリのラインを超えないように #Chrome#UI や機能が設計されている感じがする :mastobot:

#Chrome のシンプルな #UI は登場した当時は洗練されて見えたし、Web サイトが急速に「アプリ」化してきていた当時の時代背景にもマッチしてたんだけど、一方でブラウザーというモノをなるべくプレーンで、あるいみ「不便」なものにしておくことで、あらゆる機能を Web サービスの層に持っていって必然的に #Google にも依存しやすくなる、というソリューションでもあったんだと今になると思うし、それはユーザーにとって幸か不幸か、かなり成功したと思う :tony_normal:

でも最近は OS レベルでも、ウインドウのマネジメントがより簡単になってきたし、昔に比べて Web サービスの質も #Google 一興という感じじゃなくなってきたから、ブラウザー自体の機能をもっと充実させてユーザーがより柔軟に Web ページとかサービスを複合的に使いたいってニーズが出てくるのは当然だし、そういうヘビーユーザー向けに #Vivaldi :vivaldi_red: みたいなブラウザーが出てくるのは当然の流れのように自分は感じてる :vivaldia_heart:

あとヘビーユーザーじゃなくても、いつまでも(少なくとも今の)#Chrome では満足できないって人は増えてくると体感的には感じてる :tony_normal:

Brand New Video Today now that I am back at home! 🥳

A lot of people liked the Personal Bookings page in #Microsoft365, but what if you don't have M365? What if you have Google Workspace (or even just good old Gmail)? 🗓️ Most people look to other tools, generally paid ones... But not anymore! Anyone can do this simply by setting up Appointment Schedules seamlessly within Google Calendar. ☕

💡 Learn how to customise time slots, set availability, and prevent double bookings, all while enjoying the perks of real-time updates. ⏰ No need for external tools – it's all right there in Google Calendar!
