Roundcube Open-Source Webmail Software Merges with Nextcloud
A few years back I used to use SyncThing + DecSync for that purpose, and it worked quite well. Looks like it hasn't been updated in a while though.

Why is calDav such a mess?
There is decsync that works pretty good on Android. It stores contacts & calendars in a text file that can be synced with syncthing. There is a plugin for Evolution (Linux Mail client) but none for Thunderbird. But there is a plugin for Radicale, which is a caldav server. So you can run a local caldav server, connect Thunderbird to it and sync the decsync database with syncthing to your phone.

What's an open source solution to have a synced calendar in phone and computer that doesn't require self hosting?
I am a bit puzzled why so few people use DecSync and Syncthing for this?

Why isn't DecSync with Syncthing listed in the contacts and calendars section?
I found some discussion here which is confusing when it says it wasn't designed to function this way when their own documentation seems to indicate otherwise.

Looking for privacy-friendly RSS / News aggregator option that syncs feeds between Android and Windows PC
I'm fine with either paying for software, or self-hosting something. If I go the self-host route, however, I would need to start and learn completely from square one. I saw some options in my searches that required software on my own server, but I wouldn't even know where to begin with that. DecSync came up in my searches, but based on the description I'm not sure if it would be linux only or not. (I'm on windows)

Stalwart All-in-One Mail Server (IMAP, JMAP, SMTP)
Maybe https://radicale.org/ could fit the bill, CalDav for as a calendar server and CardDav for contacts.
- Calendar App that lets me view AND edit events for Mac/ios, Outlook, and Google Calendars, all from my phone? Bonus points if I can also edit on the fly on PC or Mac.

Self-hosted Caldev server connected to ProtonMail?
Setup: 1. Install a CalDev server on my home server (running Debian Linux) using maybe Radicale (https://radicale.org/) 2. Use the Linux version of ProtonMail Bridge on this server to set up IMAP to connect to this CalDev server 3. Configure filters to automatically forward event invites sent to my ProtonMail address to my CalDev server, decrypted by Bridge 4. Configure my CalDev server to use ProtonMail to send event invites, when I create new events and add invitees 5. Add this CalDev server to Fantastical, using the app on iOS and MacOS as my primary calendar

Alternative to Google Contacts?
Caldav is what you are looking for. The other comments mention implementations of them and i can vouch for radicale pretty barebones but does its job

Mailbox.org - privacy question
We are thinking of writing a guide to setting up a small Radicale instance. This could be hosted on a raspberry pi, or small NAS or something.
