I am trying to sync my calendar between a hackintosh and an android phone without google, icloud and the likes.

So far I´ve got syncthing to sync a folder called DecSync. I run a local Radicale server from that folder. Thunderbird on macOS can write to the calendar on that server.

Now I´m looking for a solution like Radicale on the Android side. I have DAVx5 running but I can´t just point it to the synced folder there. It needs an accout.

Is there such a solution? Or is there an easier way to sync calendars? Any help is highly welcomed.

If I am wrong in here, as I am not really hosting anything, please say so, if possible with a different place to ask for help.

    In that case I´d need webspace or a home server, right? Up unto now I never had a real need for any of those things, so working my way into that matter would be more work. For anyone else in this community you may be right though.

      Yes, that’s very fair :). You could do this very easily on a cheap VPS or a raspberry pi or similar, but if you haven’t done any self hosting before there would be a bit of a learning curve / investment. Might not be worth it for you, but it seems like you’d get a much cleaner and more elegant solution out of it.
