Hi everyone
I posted before here. I'll try once more but don't want to get over bearing.
I'm trying to self host all my contacts and my calendar.
I've managed to install radicale but there very little ui and I'm not actually sure how to import my contacts and calendar, or how to start using it with a client.
This is all I see
I've set up the calendar and contacts server but I can't find any security settings to password protect it
Any guidance would be awesome, thank you

I've downloaded dav5x. How can I make sure om using the server contacts and not still on Google contacts?
I'll read that, thank you for sharing
Start by using a 3rd party contacts app (or dialer+contacts as they usually come, at least on Android). Google's Contacts app only works with Google.
The 3rd party app should let you explicitly select which sources of contacts you want to use. After you set up DAVx5 you should see it available as a source.
The app I use (True Phone, com.hb.dialer.free) shows a list of all sources under "Settings > Contacts > Contacts to show" and you can check/uncheck the ones you want.
It works well with thr stock app but you have to select the destination. It seems to remember it.
