If you'd use something like your own http://owncloud.org/ you could have a pretty much google alternative for everything in once place. (Mail, Calendar, Documents, Photos, etc)

I want to set up a basic file storage/sharing cloud that I can use with my family (store files, photos, if possible, sync calendars). I have a few ideas in mind: owncloud.org, syncthing.net, nextcloud.com, and seafile.com, but I wonder which SBC to use? I could always get a RPi and attach a USB drive, but that's probably slow, something with SATA/eSATA connection or usb-c would make more sense. I have 150mbps (up/down) connection, so the speed shouldn't be an issue.

Let me show how it works at ownCloud. They are exactly in that situation, they have a stable and great product (ownCloud X written in PHP) but want to rewrite it in Go - OCIS (you can read about the reasons and background here). We as JankariTech have been working since 2017 for ownCloud to improve the test infrastructure, increase the coverage and reduce manual testing effort. As a result of this partnership, ownCloud has a huge API and UI test-suite that covers nearly all functionality of ownCloud X. How do you transfer that over to OCIS?

> Most rewrites fails because the team rewriting is not the team that did the initial development.

Looking at https://github.com/owncloud/core/graphs/contributors, most of the initial core contributors contribute now to Nextcloud instead.

I am interested in seeing how the rewrite affects end-users. Currently, it seems to be mainly focused on File Sync and I don't see things such as calendar or contacts management. (they totally could appear in the future though)

I'd assume that limiting the scope of components, makes a rewrite also easier. Nextcloud for example has a ton of hooks that allow you to write apps to customize the behaviour (want users to sign the ToS before downloading a share? Should be doable etc.). When you leave these out, implementing new things just got a whole lot easier :)

I'm curious, did you mean https://tasks.org/ or something else?

Tasks.org: Open-source To-Do Lists & Reminders (version 13.6): Fork of Astrid Tasks & To-Do List

tasks for Tasks.org mobile

I thought it was a great idea to find out how certain features are implemented in other people’s projects. I know two open-source apps that are similar to what I want to build: uhabits and tasks.org.

I think it really depends on what your definition of "productive" is.

Let me try and quantify it. I looked through my apps that I installed from F-Droid, then looked at their GitHub issues and picked one [0]. I bet I could implement that in less than a week with 0 Android development experience.

> Every Android version is basically a reboot in many parts of the framework, the device fragmentation is hardly any better than J2ME days, several features are only documented via samples or Google IO talks, Gradle plugins require rewrites between upgrades, and each Android Studio release is a box of surprises what quirks it has.

Does any of that really matter if you're hiring someone into an existing org? Doesn't Android have amazing backwards compatibility? I'm sure I have some dice app from 2012 that still runs. The company is probably targeting some version of Android and isn't changing to the latest one every time a new version is released.

Edit: and neither do some other features such as 'Filters'. I was aware that some of the features would not sync since that was mentioned in the tasks.org website. But I did not expect this to happen since the website specifically says that tags are synced with DecSync CC.

I just kept bringing up replacing Synology with Nextcloud because of the reminder sync issue and the superior web app. If you don't rely heavily on reminders then its not a huge deal. You can read more about this at https://github.com/tasks/tasks/issues/1802

I've been trying out a TON of GTD-related apps over the years and recently settled on tasks.org to complement Google Tasks. Honestly, this is an amazing app, but it lacks features that I really want: A Web interface and integration with other applications. Then a week ago, I moved to Todoist, and while it worked great and provided much of what I wanted, its free account limitations were apparent. Bummer, as I didn't want to pay what they ask for a premium account.
