Thunderbird, alternative Linux à Calendar
Mis à jour le
Notre avis
Thunderbird is a capable replacement for GNOME Calendar, particularly if you already use it for email. It handles core scheduling tasks like viewing events, setting reminders, and managing multiple calendars effectively. However, it is a heavier application with a steeper learning curve due to its email-centric design. For users who need a lightweight, distraction-free interface focused solely on scheduling, GNOME Calendar remains superior. Thunderbird is best suited for users who want to consolidate their email and calendar into one application and do not mind a more complex interface.

Ouvrir vos fichiers Calendar
GNOME Calendar typically stores data in local files or connects to online accounts. Thunderbird supports importing standard iCal (.ics) files, which can be exported from GNOME Calendar if it supports local file export. If you use online accounts like CalDAV, both applications can connect to the same server, allowing seamless synchronization without file conversion. Direct file compatibility between native local storage formats is not guaranteed, so using iCal export/import or CalDAV synchronization is the recommended approach.

- Export your existing events from GNOME Calendar as an .ics file if using local storage

- Import the .ics file into Thunderbird via File > Import
