Hello everyone!
I was wondering what solutions people have for Calendar syncing that are not Proton / Tuta.
Specifically, I was wondering what E2EE options are available that are ideally cross-platform as well.
The main reason why I ask is I am frankly frustrated with how both Tuta and Proton rely on their own apps, and don’t necessarily integrate well with all operating systems. Especially with Proton’s growing suite of apps, it feels like they are in some ways creating their own walled garden. While it is at this time a better privacy option than the conventional options, it is still a situation that feels like a vendor lock-in situation.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, including those that require a self-hosted server :)
what E2EE options are available
both Tuta and Proton rely on their own apps, and don’t necessarily integrate well with all operating systems.
If you’re looking for options that are both E2EE and also use open standards for integrations, you’re not going to have any luck.
How about EteSync?
Do you self-host or do you pay? Just curious what your experience has been with the two options :)
Thank you for the suggestion!
I’m not using it at all, I use the *DAV functionality of my paid mail provider.
I did research on what solution I would use alternatively – with requirements very similar to the ones you proposed – and EteSync checked all the boxes, which is why I recommended it.
I set up an instance once, and it seemed to work just fine, but I haven’t thoroughly evaluated it.
Maybe take a look at FluidCalendar, I just found it but haven’t tested yet : https://github.com/dotnetfactory/fluid-calendar It’s still in early development but it may have what you need.
Alternatively, you can take a look at Baikal for CalDAV and CardDAV support : https://github.com/sabre-io/Baikal
