I’d like to hear of an alternative to google calendar. I just need a calendar-based event tracker that is able to sync between at least my phone (android) and PC (Linux). Are there any alternative services? (other than Outlook)

    Radical on the server, Davx5 on the phone to sync, Thunderbird on your desktop. The combination has worked for me over many years.

      Man, I’ve read this like so many times. So… I just set it up and it’s working a treat. I installed radicale via radicale-docker, got it confogured with my user, set it up in Thunderbird and install/configured Davx5 and Fossify calendar (via F-Droid) on my android phone. <phew>

      Docker for radicale (which is unofficial but they don’t offer one, so…)

      The only thing I might have to get used to is the sync delay with davx5. How often do you have yours setup to sync, if you don’t mind me asking?

        I don’t know, it was always quick enough for me so I never went looking for a setting.

        It is also delayed for me, I just trigger a manual sync every time I made a change…
