Davx⁵ has Mac OS caldav carddav server integration so you can sync with it.

On android you can use simple calendar or etar to view calendars and "tasks" or jtxboard for tasks/journals

Icard is actuality the only alternative that can register as a contactless nfc payment that not relying on google/Apple wallet and its perfectly safe. It's an actual bank in Bulgaria and is eu regulated and PCI certified

Not Foss. Kinda of a privacy nightmare as you need to verify your identity and location with actual documents but as already said its not google and is a solid option if you are degoogled.

Android clients

Your options in aftermarket OS fall in to 3 categories imao

1. those that support relocking the bootloader (grapheme,calyx,divest, other smaller projects maybe)

2. vanilla roms with signature spoofing permission so that you can have microg on them. Some even come with microg preinstalled (/e/,lode,Los4mg) And some are gmscomat compatible (voltage,awaken,spark). There are plenty but they don't care about signed images and relocking.

3. some unofficial build from any of the above from a maintainer that cares to sign his own images so that you can relock your BL as your device supports it.

Channels and groups are not encrypted in tg. Like this community we now chatting is not encrypted. I dont see anything wrong in that. For the tg encryption security audit , i think its beyond the purpuse of the channel i made so idc.

Telegram is not google. The clients are open source. And there are degoogled clients on fdroid. And eitherway you can access the channel from any browser without the need of an account

Together with the other suggestions jtx board is also a new addition Developed from the davx5 team , tasks,calendars,journals and NOTES.

The good: Easy sync of notes with any caldav provider . No extra servers and apps for tasks,cakendars,journals. Mtls support ( davx5 supports it ) for extra security if you selfhost

The bad: No desktop client

Matrix does not have search filter. Actually does not have any search at all in groups

Also there is no way categorise messages by any mean

In telegram I just add a # in the post Then Users tap on the # and all related messages appear

Easy

And fast

That would require a lot more work. The idea behind the channel is to have an instant share and categorisation of an app I and other found and want to share and then use the related channel group to comment about it

You can access the channel from a web browser adding /s/ to the url https://t.me/s/favandroidapps

Tap on #tags on the pinned message to view only message with the selected tag

ps:Updated the post link with the web version of the channel
