OK, ok I will check all the warnings, but this is mostly new and a lot

Feat: Apps discover section (server#44129) does not work for me in Nextcloud 29 Beta 3. I get the error:

Fetching the last news…

I would also find it better if the list of all apps was called up first and you had to select this manually yourself. I don’t need to see these “ads” for apps every time I want to update apps in the App Store, for example. It also places a completely unnecessary load on Nextcloud’s infrastructure by downloading this information. In my opinion, the feature in this form is a step backwards for Nextcloud. What do you think you will achieve? Maybe you should also advertise all the old apps that are really good and that many admins and users don’t even know about.

And the basic functionalities of the calendar still do not work !

Would building blocks like this one get back on track before official release ?

@Joan_Moreau

And the basic functionalities of the calendar still do not work !

Which ones?

Do we have a list of these features for the calendar app (if yes, it would be great to link the related github issues)?

[nursoda]

I see this in /settings/apps – not loading anything. Is that an error (one of my browser privacy addons?) on my side or is there no news yet (in which case there should be a decent info to the user)?
