Ivor<br>@ivorisnoob<br>Discovered this calendar by accident, on the #mimestream reddit. Great piece of software for those who use Google Calendar either through workspace or ordinary GMail account! Thanks!

sparekontoX<br>@sparekontoX<br>There's a new calendar app with a "Mimestream feel". Taking a Google service and making a native Mac App to utilize it. It's still in beta but I think it will get there.

narich<br>u/narich<br>First of all great work with the application so far, just got the invitation and still testing. Finally a decent MacOS calendar app!

luchian.bordiyan<br>Discord<br>I don't know how I stumbled across this app but I am so grateful that I did. I use Mime Stream for emails and kept on thinking to myself, I wish there was a really well-made Mac-native app for calendar just like I see MimeStream for my mail.
