I considered moving to another provider when I moved off Google but decided to do it myself and self-host Nextcloud. Really haven't had any issues with calendars. Got the fam on Nextcloud calendar. I really like owning my calendar

Didn't these guys run an add on SN for a while?

Are you happy with Proton's services or still looking for alternatives?

I'm happy with it. Moving everything again is beyond my ambition right now.

Thanks. I'm also going to settle for Protonmail only because I don't think there are many better alternatives left out there.
