I'm having a really annoying problem where Calendar events, even tho they have reminders/notifications properly set up, just don't actually trigger these notifications when they're supposed to.

Are there any logs or debug settings or anything I can do to troubleshoot this further? All of the direct UI settings are definitely set up correctly. And there are other events for which notifications work fine, so it's not that notifications are broken altogether

Will there ever be an option in the calendar to schedule links to video conferencing platforms like zoom or teams or google meet?

Lot's of other 'smart' calendars have this as an option. For example, when I use google calendar on a browser there is a zoom plugin so when I schedule an appointment it automatically generates a meeting invite for the attendees and put the meeting on my zoom app.

I know that this is probably reliant more on the companies [Google, Microsoft, Zoom] to make an extension for this, but it would be great if this could be implemented in the future.

Disable the pop-up reminder window in Lightning Calendar when you create a new event

Hi folks, I am wondering if there is a way to change the behavior of the pop-up reminder window in Calendar. When I have missed reminders (e.g. a task set for today at 8am and it is now 9am), the task is visible in the reminder window that pops up every time a reminder is active. This is fine. But if there is a past reminder (not resolved), every time I add a new task (or edit a past task) to the calendar, the pop-up reminder window opens and comes to the front. Let me describe the example: I missed (knowingly) a reminder at 8AM. Now, at 9 AM I need to add 3 new tasks to the Calendar. After setting (or copying, editing) each new task, the pop-up reminder window is focused on the front. Can I change this behavior so that the reminder window only pop up when the reminder is due and not in the case a new task is set up or old one edited?

TB calendar incorrect translation of machine time zone (Windows 11)

Hello! I am facing the issue with time zone translations. Here is what I do. First, I create event on web-interface of the google calendar. That account is linked to TB's calendar. This calendar has settings for my timezone as in the first screenshot, that is GMT+3 for Kyiv, Ukraine. It is actually GMT+2 + daylight saving hour in effect. Country is also set to Ukraine. Next, my Windows 11 system is set to set time and timezone automatically, region - Ukraine. It displays UTC+2 Helsinki, Kyiv,... I guess it's Windows settings display quirk, because time is correct and WSL console shows

~$ date -R Thu, 18 Apr 2024 18:59:25 +0300

My TB's calendar is set to have system's timezone as in 3rd screenshot.

Now if I see my event in TB calendar, it is placed one hour later, say 9 am event starts at 10. So reminders also come hour later. Also strange thing is that event properties in TB show correct time like 9:00 till 10:40, but for some strange timezone Europe/Zaporozhye, as in 4th picture.

However, if I set TB's calendar manually to Europe/Kiev (which should be Kyiv, but that's another story), then events are shifted hour up to their right place, 9 am. So this is my issue: when I set calendar forcibly to Kyiv timezone, it does translate it right. When I ask calendar to rely on system's timezone, which indeed is also Kyiv, then I get one hour behind.
