DecSync VS libreddit

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.

DecSync

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.

DecSync works with Syncthing to sync contacts and calendars.

I am a bit puzzled why so few people use DecSync and Syncthing for this?

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.

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)

Don't use Youtube without going through a proxy like Invidious [1] or Newpipe

Don't use {site} Search without going through a proxy like SearxNG [2]

Don't use TwiXXer without going through a proxy like Nitter - this has gotten more difficult lately but it still works as long as you feed the daemon some registered accounts. Video does not work at the moment but that seems to be fixable.

Don't use Reddit without going through a proxy like libreddit [4]

Start noticing the pattern? Maybe it is time to start producing promotional posters:

The only thing to come between you and ADS could be a proxy / ADS. I'ts just not worth the risk

ADS / New rules for a sane net / Sane net protects you, your partner and your community

A proxy here and a filter there, ADS nowhere

The more you tighten your grip, ${site}, the more viewers will slip through your fingers

This is a particular teddit instance shutting down, not teddit the software project.

Stuff is moving a lot currently and there is a bumpy road ahead, but there are several courses of action already being mapped out (scraping html, r-e the private gql api, a setting for operators to put some auth token, ..).

Sadly the quick refresh is no longer working for me, and going through all of the instances on Libredirect, they all seem to be constantly down now.

It appears that they are trying to deal with this issue here:

Yes, the official Reddit app uses a different endpoint for authentication. There has been great progress in reverse-engineering the private API: https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit/issues/818

There's a fork of Libreddit that uses the API key leaked from the official Reddit app: https://github.com/libreddit/libreddit/pull/819
