FOSS contacts storage/sync? (lemm.ee)

So...yeah. As I'm moving away from google, I'd like to store my contacts elsewhere. I have proton (I know, I know), but this is also not great, since their system isn't too android-friendly. Which system (maybe self-hosted) would you suggest to easily sync/backup your contacts?

Thanks!

How did you set it up? The pip install method no longer works. I guess it still was a valid way until some point last year.

With podman/docker container, behind caddy reverse proxy.

Thanks...I have it running now. I guess my nit-pickyness of this is, it's just the server. I'd like to have also something replicating a calendar and contacts managing web UI, ala google calendar/contacts. Sure this works neatly already (no complains there!), but I'm trying to also provide functionality for the rest of the family. Sometimes a web app might be the easiest approach to check something first.
