If you need a car just once a week you shouldn’t own a car at all. Take the bus!

I agree, the described system seem unnecessarily complicated. Decsync exists exactly for that use case.

Here is the bug btw in case someone is interested: https://github.com/39aldo39/Radicale-DecSync/issues/33

I just realized this is not the exact setup I use. I use Radicale on the desktop but additionally Decsync. So I don’t need Radicale on my other devices, just a Decsync client.

With “mostly” in my case I was referring to the Radicale-Decsync plugin which works great but doesn’t seem to be actively maintained anymore. So there was an instance where Radicale changed something and the Decsync plugin didn’t work anymore. Was an easy fix but sadly that fix is still not available in the “official” Radicale-Decsync plugin which makes it hard for non technical users to use it, currently.

I am using this setup for years by now. Works great mostly.

Honestly, I have no idea what you are referring to either. Would you mind sending me a message if you don’t want to go into detail in public?
