Oh, I definitely agree, it’s a really good tool if you need that. But on trying to find and setup a FOSS calendar server, I repeatedly saw the sentiment of “why not install Nextcloud?”. I just wanted a calendar server that would sync with native apps, I didn’t need a web interface for it. I didn’t want to dedicate the resources either. Baikal needs 1gb of RAM and 1 vCPU. Nextcloud needs 4-8x that, at a minimum.
Honestly, I am pretty surprised that Baikal requires that much :D It should literally take no more than 100 MB of memory and way less CPU, IMO - or did you mean the size of a VM?
The size of the VM itself. I run a MariaDB container on the same VM for Obsidian syncing. They both chug along happily. I can’t assign it less than a single vCPU, but that is still just one thread on a two thread core. I could assign it less than 1GB of RAM, but the box has 128GB so why bother?
