davx5-ose VS tz

DAVx⁵ [0] operates under the same principle and they seem to have success with it.

As someone who has moved between macOS+iOS and Windows/Linux+Android several times, this is doable. For technical people, it's just annoying. For non-technical people, this probably needs written into a more formal set of steps. If you have the need, one can setup your world to work on both systems transparently, but that takes more work.

Caveats: iOS messages can be kept, but they'll be in files, not your new message app. Photo edits will be lost unless you take extra steps.

Messages: if you are comfortable with it, use imessage-exporter (https://github.com/ReagentX/imessage-exporter) on your Mac to export your messages to disk. Copy to new machine. Validate you got what you wanted! Can also be used to decrease iCloud usage by backing up messages and deleting the originals from Apple Messages.

Photos: three ways. 1) open up the macOS photos app, select all photos, and export them. This will make any JPEG photos much larger than they originally were due to ridiculous default quality settings. 2) If you have access to a Windows machine, install iCloud for Windows, let the photos sync, and copy them to a new directory. 3) Use iCloud's web UI to download all the photos on the new machine.

Mail: pick a new provider. Several ways. 1) Add the new provider account to macOS mail. Copy and paste your emails/folders between accounts. 2) Create an app-specific password for iCloud, use the provider's migration facility (most major players support this and it will move your contacts and calendars).

Calendars: if you are sharing calendars with iOS users or will keep some Apple devices, keep iCloud as your primary calendar system. Use DavX5 (https://www.davx5.com/) on Android to setup a two-way mirror between your Android calendar app. Your email provider may provide calendar mirroring (Fastmail does, for one). If you aren't sharing / using your mail provider, export your calendars to ICS files from Apple Calendar and import into your new calendar app.

Contacts: if you will continue using Apple products, keep iCloud as your primary contacts system and use DavX5. Otherwise, open macOS Contacts, select all, and export to a VCF file. Import this into your new Contacts app.

Documents: copy to a backup drive from the machine, download them from iCloud on the web, use iCloud for Windows for the initial sync. Whatever suits you. If you are using Apple's office apps, be sure to load and save as a more universal format.

DAVx⁵ (version 403020001): CalDAV/CardDAV Synchronization and Client

Is this different or better than https://www.davx5.com/ ?

IDN depends on you, all fairly basic stuff TBH Rooting depends on the model, pixel 4: https://www.xda-developers.com/google-pixel-4-root-magisk/ F-droid App repo: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.fdroid.fdroid/ Setting up DNS, 1.1.1.2 provides some malware blocking: https://developers.cloudflare.com/1.1.1.1/setup/android/#configure-1111-manually Private email require you own a domain. Migadu has instructions on setting of the mail (MX) records with your provider, I use namecheap. I use this opensource app for caldav(calendar sync) and cardav(contact sync). https://www.davx5.com/

I now use CalDAV Synchronizer to sync Outlook to my Radicale CalDAV / CardDAV "server" (a Raspberry Pi), with DAVx running on our phones.

There is a similar problem with Dublin timezone in Davx5 / iCal4j: https://github.com/bitfireAT/davx5-ose/discussions/265 (and noone cares)

A link was added from "Europe/Kiev" to "Europe/Kyiv" in the included-by-default backward file [0], so that any user that doesn't exclude that file will simply treat the old name as an alias for the new name.

timeZone: Determines the current timezone to use to display the time e.g. America/Los_Angeles. Full list can be found on IANA time zone database

"Eire" is in there, for instance, to deal with software that assumes that the "is_dst" half of the year is during the (northern) summer, but Ireland technically does it the other way around -- a distinction relevant only to computers.

https://github.com/eggert/tz/blob/c3e966c59b02b1f47f0b7b0e4a...

The only other timezone that currently has a non-1h offset for DST -- Ireland's is -1 hours -- is Australia/Lord_Howe, which has a 30-min positive leap.

Prof Paul Eggert is currently the editor and coordinator of the Time Zone Database of IANA, which enables timestamps on official documents and photos.

I've looked at it, but wanted to work with the tz source repository directly (I think local-time gets their zone files from Ubuntu). Also getting zic running in a portable way seemed too much of a hassle. The text file format is not all that complicated and documented in the zic manual pretty well. This approach is also chosen by the JDK as far as I can tell.

Unfortunately, you just wait. The person(s) at IANA who manages The Time Zone Database is certainly aware, and from there it "just" has to percolate down to Google and your phone.

most systems use https://www.iana.org/time-zones

And have you looked at the TZ database? My God it's a hot mess, and for good reason: human governments are terrible at creating code. Worse even than beginning CS students, because at least CS students know they don't know what they're doing, while politicians are both stupid and arrogant enough to think they're not stupid.
