Nonsense. It works fine on Github, Fastmail, Gandi... it doesn't work on Google because Google uses a different spec. That bug is about making Firefox compatible with the variation that Chrome/Google uses.

That bug mentions that Facebook is also broken.

I am kind of surprised that the sites you mention can implement the spec correctly but Facebook and Google can't.

Google is notorious for not following spec.

In this case, though, what happened is that Google implemented a different, earlier version of the spec than most everyone else. Mozilla is busy implementing that spec as well to bridge the gap.

Google's CardDAV server isn't standards compliant (2014) https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16412730

I'm not surprised.
