Definitely overkill for just a calendar app but the great thing about NextCloud is once you spin it up there’s probably an integration for the next 5 FOSS solutions you’re looking for, which means fewer containers to manage in Docker.
Definitely, that's what I'm doing as well. I've found some to be lacking for my needs (e.g. music), but most of them are good enough for most use cases.
