Topic: Let’s talk about PIM capabilities.
-
Some details about the topic: It is a bit complex topic but I feel like they are heavily connected and it is worth to discuss it as a whole package. Supporting Oauth doesn’t work by most providers. As a result it is not possible to sync IMAP, CalDAV and CardDAV inside a singular account. So setting up Fastmail for example needs to be done 3 times as 3 separated entries. Also syncing notes and todos is not possible at all. Even so there is no ToDo app as part of Sailfish OS. There is a notes app but it only works as an offline local app. There should be an option besides generic IMAP and generic CalDAV/CardDAV accounts for generic Oauth accounts too. I do believe that this set of features is essential on a phone to be able to use it as a PIM device so having a consideration and a timeline for it would already be a great thing.

Substitute (optional): Additionally I saw a feature request that utilizes WebDAV in a way I didn’t consider but sounds interesting enough to add it to the discussion here: Request: Support for generic WebDAV photo sources in Gallery
