How to sync contacts and calendars between desktop and Android (without root)

This is a simple guide on how to synchronise contacts and calendars between a desktop operating system (Windows, macOS, Linux) and Android relying on a combination of Syncthing and Radicale. The main goal and idea is to have Radicale running on every system locally, so that you can connect with it even when there is no network connection available. This applies to both desktop operating systems and Android as well. Desktop: Install and run Radicale following instructions from https://radical...

Radicale is good, but EteSync is better, although EteSync has not been updated for a long time (as far as I know), the data is encrypted, which is way better if for some reason, the data of your server/VPS gets compromised.

Inbox, didn’t even see it was deleted until I clicked through.

You can have untrusted peers in Syncthing that only receive an encrypted copy of your data.

Hmm, I did not know that. Thanks
