How can I share an event as easily as possible only through a URL? Ideally, they just click and their calendar app adds the event. Second best is downloading an .ics file. Who hosts such a service? (lemmy.ml)

Is there a FLOSS service that hosts events and can be used to distribute .ics files only with a link?

Is there a solution I am missing? Again, the requirements are:

something that can be shared via a URL only (no files)
something that is agnostic to the calendar provider (so no Google account necessary)
something that is ridiculously easy for someone non-technical and in a hurry

It sounds like a Radicale server set through an ngnix proxy may be a solution for your needs?

Other than the last part for you, but once it's set up it seems like it's pretty much going to run forever edit: and is easy for your users who get the invite url.
