The dav bridge install instructions will soon be moved so better to
use the new links now already (for now, they are just a redirect).

How does journaled change to privacy-respecting?

I think this looks a bit clumsy.

Android, iOS, the web and any other OS (using a CalDAV/CardDAV bridge).

What are the CalDAV/CardDAV bridges?

I think there is a conflict with the ease of use criteria.

Thanks or your feedback.

How does journaled change to privacy-respecting?

Journaled was the old language we used to use, we stopped using it a while ago. The current language from the website is: "Secure, end-to-end encrypted, and privacy respecting sync for your contacts, calendars and tasks.", so it was just adjusted accordingly.

I think this looks a bit clumsy.

I agree, a second attempt below:

Android, iOS, the web and any other OS (using a CalDAV/CardDAV bridge).

What are the CalDAV/CardDAV bridges?

Fair enough, I agree it's still not clear, but before it looked as if DAV was required for all platforms instead of just the desktop.

I think there is a conflict with the ease of use criteria.

Could you please elaborate? Not sure I follow.

Second attempt at writing a description:

EteSync is a secure, end-to-end encrypted, and privacy-respecting cloud backup and synchronization software for your personal information (e.g. contacts and calendars). There are native clients for Android, iOS, and the web, and a CalDAV/CardDAV bridge for integration with DAV clients. It costs $24 per year to use, or you can host the server yourself for free.

There's CONTRIBUTING.md that states this under Software Criteria:

Easy to use. Could your mother use that tool or service? Usability is most important.

@Mikaela

What are the CalDAV/CardDAV bridges?

I think there is a conflict with the ease of use criteria.

Also, for Nextcloud on the same page, we already mention "CalDAV and contacts sync via CardDAV". (I don't have experience with CalDAV/CardDAV, but if this is an ease-of-use issue, then we should also reword/remove that part from the Nextcloud entry.)

Thanks for the clarification @djoate. I misunderstood @Mikaela, and didn't realise the point was about the bridge comment.

As you said, it's also used in the above with NextCloud. I can maybe rephrase that part to "and an adapter layer for most desktop clients.". How would that sound?

Thanks for taking the time to review this.

I have lost my train of thought during this time, but I am fine with the second description if you commit it.

I cannot promise when I will be able to look into this for the next time though.
