@Hubzilla Support Forum+ I'm currently experimenting with Hubzilla Calendar integration on macOS. This is part of my review of Hubzilla 2.8.
Quick question: now that calDAV is supported in core, is it possible that the Events calendar and the cdav calendar will be merged into one calendar in the future?
I'm trying to wrap my head around how this part of the platform is supposed to work, and I'd love to just have one calendar for everything, rather than two separate calendars that serve different purposes.

One of the few games that I worked on in my earlier years which I've managed to recover. Many of my other projects remain lost to time; it's rather unfortunate that the one I could recover also ranks among my worst efforts.
But hey, it's something for the archive.

I am unemployed since the days of Germany's world champion and I have no money...

@giac "Precaution always pays off". If I am not the owner of the infrastructure I would ALWAYS make backups on a regular basis.
As you said it seems to be true that the Hubs in Hubzilla vanish sometimes. I can imagine that this is very unpleasant. Hmm. But why not create an own hub? That's Hubzilla and decentralisation is about. Getting rid of the cancer of centralisation of servers and on mobile devices, including DNS-Servers, Internet providers, Google (connectivity services, push messages, play store, cloud features,...)... you name it...
-
@Vecchio Giac I'm sorry, I will revive lastauth.com and the reason it hasn't been done yet, is simply because I work 12-hours per day on an exhausting/stressful job. I'm still paying for the server in hopes that I can recover data whenever I get time to try with a KVM. LastAuth was having troubles, but NOT due to bugs in Hubzilla's code, and at the end, I mostly had it tuned up.
When I do revive the site, I'll make it clear that it's going to have federation issues without the creation of new channels.
-
what I mean, and I talk about various channels that I have/had and not just 1 or 2 , is that I have created a sea of clones during these last years, an ocean..., but it seems that the speed with which the sites/hubs die ( and therefore my clones) is bigger than my ability, time, possibility, to create clones. This that is daunting.

@giac_hellvecio
it happened to me already a lot of times,
Have you tried to export your ID and data to file? On a regular basis once a month or similar? Would be interesting to hear how a re-import to another Hub would do well for you. (I never did this.)
-
"This reminds me that I need to find a new place for a backup clone as all of mine are now dead."
it happened to me already a lot of times, it seems that the precariousness of the decentralized networks (hubs/sites) is bigger than the great invention of Zot ... quite sad and discouraging.
-
"On a side note, I could bring lastauth.com back to life with an old backup but I fear the the majority of channels were created by diaspora folks and would result in bashing of Hubzilla due to broken diaspora connections. "
I do not understand, since you have the opportunity to bring back to life the site, you should give it, so as to give users the ability to recover their data and profiles, and then clone in another hub. Also because, if I'm not mistaken, your site is dead from one hour to another, without giving users any chance, while in other cases the administrators have given enough time for users to clone. Give the users the time required to create clones on another site if you really can do it.
-
This reminds me that I need to find a new place for a backup clone as all of mine are now dead.
-
Just to be clear, Hubzilla has been awesomely simple for me. The death of my public hub was due to my failure to keep the backup location running and being too busy to pay attention to errors. All servers will experience issues and need immediate attention, so perhaps a managed server is a good suggestion for busy people, especially for a public hub.
On a side note, I could bring lastauth.com back to life with an old backup but I fear the the majority of channels were created by diaspora folks and would result in bashing of Hubzilla due to broken diaspora connections.
-
We now ping for notifications only after the first set of data was loaded. This might still need adjusting...
-
Hmm, looks like it does in fact load, but takes an extremely long time to show up...
-
Yeah, I do have those in the Clarify theme that I'm running. But I purposefully tweaked them to include the notification widget as dictated by the redbasic theme it is based on.
-
See if you have content in view/theme/(themename)/pdl - these files will override the layout of the base theme.
-
i dont know if it practically exists because hubzilla is easily flexible enough, it's a mystery
;)

Incidentally one of the design goals for Denim is to provide personal S3 storage options, so you can back up to and serve your online account and files from NextCloud or a dedicated NAS box or even Amazon if you want. This will make Kris' head hurt, but I'm not doing this for him. I'm doing it for me and other systems folks who see value in integrated/pluggable storage and aren't intimidated by building high reliability systems. Your average Mastodon user won't ever get their head around this, but those of you who are systems folks out there understand what I'm saying and what this implies.
-
I know some users who didn't have clone.
Do you back up your home PC? If you don't, you can hardly blame Microsoft or Linus Torvalds if your hard disk fails. You don't even need a clone. You just need to save a snapshot of your identity once every few months, which is better than losing everything. I'm not responsible for saving your personal data from disaster. You are. I can give you the tools, but it is your responsibility to actually use them.
And now they stay in Diaspora.
Amusing. The reason why I created nomadic identity wasn't because of (at the time) Friendica sites shutting down, but because very large Diaspora sites shut down and everybody went back to Facebook. In 2017 Diaspora still doesn't have anything that will read their backup files and save an account, though it may arrive sometime in 2018. Hubzilla can read Diaspora backup files to some degree and keep their account and identity alive and it has had this ability for a few years now.
-
What's interesting is that the behavior persists when I switch to another theme...but it acts normal if I switch to managing a different channel.
