Vikunja vs Ever Teams: at a glance
What is Vikunja?
Vikunja crossed the v1.0 finish line and pivoted hard into security hardening.
Vikunja shipped two v1.0 release candidates through late 2025 and early 2026, then jumped to a v2 series whose first widely-tagged point release, v2.2.1, is dominated by security work. The latest release patches multiple SSRF and IDOR vulnerabilities, enforces disabled/locked-account semantics across every auth surface (OIDC, API tokens, CalDAV, LDAP), and adds a shared SSRF-safe HTTP client that webhooks and migrations now route through. User-facing feature work has slowed; the visible energy is in plumbing and audit cleanup.
What is Ever Teams?
Ever Teams tags dozens of versions a day; most are fixes and test changes.
Ever Teams tags several releases a day. On 12 November 0.196 added a Jira Cloud integration section, timer notes and a Workspace settings page, and 0.197 added a due-date calendar, drag-to-reschedule and a Table layout for team tasks. The releases tagged around midnight on 13 November are small: a dismissable newsletter card, spelling-list and test fixes, a dependency bump, Docs export fixes, and in 0.199.0 a keyboard shortcut to assign tasks.

Vikunja crossed the v1.0 finish line and pivoted hard into security hardening.
◆ Current state
Vikunja shipped two v1.0 release candidates through late 2025 and early 2026, then jumped to a v2 series whose first widely-tagged point release, v2.2.1, is dominated by security work. The latest release patches multiple SSRF and IDOR vulnerabilities, enforces disabled/locked-account semantics across every auth surface (OIDC, API tokens, CalDAV, LDAP), and adds a shared SSRF-safe HTTP client that webhooks and migrations now route through. User-facing feature work has slowed; the visible energy is in plumbing and audit cleanup.
◆ Where it's heading
The arc moves from feature-completion (S3 storage, drag-and-drop project moves, hover previews in late 2025) toward platform credibility — closing security gaps a self-hosted task tool needs to clear before serious team adoption. The rapid version-number jump from v1.0.0-rc4 to v2.2.1 in two months suggests v1.0 shipped and the team tagged a v2 line aimed at addressing accumulated authz debt. Expect the next several releases to keep the security-first posture rather than return to a feature push.
◆ Prediction
The next release will likely continue closing remaining authz edges (more IDOR audits, additional credential-stripping in API responses) and bundle a translations and dependency sweep. A user-facing feature push probably waits until the security work plateaus.
Ever Teams tags dozens of versions a day; most are fixes and test changes.
◆ Current state
Ever Teams tags several releases a day. On 12 November 0.196 added a Jira Cloud integration section, timer notes and a Workspace settings page, and 0.197 added a due-date calendar, drag-to-reschedule and a Table layout for team tasks. The releases tagged around midnight on 13 November are small: a dismissable newsletter card, spelling-list and test fixes, a dependency bump, Docs export fixes, and in 0.199.0 a keyboard shortcut to assign tasks.
◆ Where it's heading
The project ships through an automated release loop that tags every merged change, so version numbers say little about scope. Real features still arrive every day or two, aimed at task views, time tracking and integrations with other project tools.
◆ Prediction
Expect the version count to keep climbing quickly, with the occasional release adding a task view or integration among many fix-only tags.
