Radicale. I just finished setting it up and with that, I can now finally shut down Nextcloud.
How do you handle shared calendars with radicale?
There is a symlink trick on the server side. It's a little annoying that it is only a workaround, but one set up it's great! I was looking for the git issue where i found it, but was only able to find this one (it seems to be documented now).

Thank you! I'd wish Radicale would include a dedicated sharing feature, at least there's a workaround.
Agree, very lightweight, simple once-and-forget setup.
I had a very old install, migrated from 2016. It broke on nearly every upgrade, where I'd have to invoke some occ command to fix the db. It was more work than was worth having Nextcloud.
Now I have syncthing and radicale.
Not the pne you replied to, but for me it works to add the full path to another users calendar in davx5, and then setting appropriate permissions to it in the rights file.
