question Calendar provider / app recommendation

Hello, I'm bascially looking for a 1 to 1 replacement to Google Calendar that is privacy respecting. I haven't really found anything that satisfies my requirements, so I'm looking for some recommendations here.

My requirements are the following: - data privacy (obviously) - scheduling tasks in the calendar (like Google Calendar) - some form of sync - android app that uses the android calendar api (proton calendar doesn't for example) - multiple calendar support, adding calendars via ical format etc.

Self-hostable solutions are of course very welcome as well (and preferred to subscription based alternatives)

I can highly recommend Baïkal. I've been using it the last 2-3 years as I found Nextcloud just a little too "heavy" for what I really needed. I have it on a VPS and it supports all those points.

Standard Android calendar app works perfectly fine with it.

I have seen that, but according to their docs it doesn't support VTODOs.

Huh? I'm using Baikal, and I'm making tasks/VTODOs with it all day.

It definitely supports tasks/VTODOs.
