  • I never liked the fact there is a contacts app which other apps can tap into.

    I have started using an org-mode file with entries that have tel: or callto: properties. I lose vCard exportability, but I can use the file as-is instead.

    * Open-source

    Yes

    * Android, Web, and (if necessary) Linux and Windows clients

    Emacs on larger devices, Orgzly on Android

    * Stores contact info locally (i.e. self-hosted)

    Yes

    * Stores contact info securely (encrypted)

    Unencrypted, but if you don’t allow apps other than syncing apps the permission to access all files, it may not matter as much

    * Can store in a cloud location (e.g. Sync, Dropbox)

    I just have Syncthing set up to sync those files too
