I just feel like there's a middle ground like Resilio Sync where you have to share in ensuring you're syncing things but it can technically do the deed for you.

I just feel like there's a middle ground like Resilio Sync where you have to share in ensuring you're syncing things but it can technically do the deed for you. You can even set an automation after you edit your calendar to trigger automatic/manual syncing. I feel like middle grounds like this or EteSync should be more predominant. I would mind that since its local and I prefer to not be dependant on external hosting services wherever I can have a more accountable and static solution a little closer to home

But almost nobody wants that middle ground. That's a tiny, tiny, tiny minority. I, and everyone I know, wants something that always works, all the time, no matter where they are, that they never have to think about. Not something that they "have to share in ensuring", not something they need to "set an automation". For almost everyone, external hosting services are a feature rather than a dependency, because homes are subject to fires and natural disasters. And nobody wants to deal with finding a friend across town who will host your backup NAS that you'll set up and periodically maintain. There's just no market for it from any major consumer company.
