Ask HN: What service to use as a contacts/calendar server?

5 pointsby 0xb100db1adeabout 6 years ago
I&#x27;m trying to go through the de-Googling process.<p>I have used ProtonMail and Signal for a few months and love it so far.<p>I&#x27;d like to move my contacts and calendar away from Google.<p>ProtonMail offers contacts, but they don&#x27;t integrate with other apps on Android (maybe I just use it anyway?)<p>I&#x27;ve read about EteSync [1], which allows for end-to-end encrypted contacts and calendar. However, I&#x27;m not sure how comfortable I am with trusting that a project of that scale implements cryptography correctly[2] (no offense @tasn)<p>Maybe NextCloud?<p>What does the HN community use to store contacts&#x2F;calendar?<p>[1] https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.etesync.com&#x2F; [2] https:&#x2F;&#x2F;git.io&#x2F;fhpaP

I use FastMail for email, contacts and calendar with DavDroid<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;play.google.com&#x2F;store&#x2F;apps&#x2F;details?id=at.bitfire.davdroid&amp;hl=en" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;play.google.com&#x2F;store&#x2F;apps&#x2F;details?id=at.bitfire.dav...</a>
