I wish this was more usable across devices. I found the program amazing, but it basically requires you to only use one device.

Would syncing via Syncthing or even rsync(1) fit your bill? (I am literary just found this and reading thru the man page, so i can't tell how i tackle this.) Most likely i end up with a) trying to sync the ~/.reminders folder OR b) just send some sort of notification to my other devices (mail and/or push notify). Or asking at remind-fans-request@lists.skoll.ca mailing list what smarter peps do.

Email is probably the easiest option. I haven’t seen any clients for iOS or Android and while I guess you could wire up something using Ntfy or similar, it’s not really worth the effort in many cases.

Probably hosting your own radicale.service with [1] is what you (I) want?

I was not aware of this. Something to ponder this weekend, I guess.

For Android, depending on how agressive power management is, running in Termux and creating notifications via Termux helper for them could work for local running.
