BTW How do you keep on syncing your calendars and stuff?
I self host with Baikal. On android, you need Davx5 (on fdroid) to tie it into the OS but on your desktop (windows and Linux at least) calDAV will just be an option. Baikal supports CardDAV for contacts as well if you're into that.
I use my self-hosted Nextcloud instance for this. Then sync to mobile using DAVx5. Calendar and contacts.
i think is the best way possible. does it have any charge?
It is all free to use, but you will likely have some expenses with the self-hosting. If you do it yourself at home, you require hardware and power to run it on, and you would be well off having some additional backup solution off-site as well that would add to the cost. If you host on a VPS (like I do), you have the running costs of renting that server space.
Idk I don't have a calendar, but I hear nextcloud is great for that
I use nextcloud for all these google things.
