Help with installing libwxgtk3.0-gtk3-0v5 (Veracrypt dependency) on Debian 12
The issue is described there: https://github.com/veracrypt/VeraCrypt/issues/1046 . Apparently newer libwxgtk works on Arch. Other option is to compile it yourself or you the Veracrypt package from nightly builds.

VeraCrypt: Free, open source, disk encryption for Windows, Mac OS X, Linux
I've used countless encryption "schemes" over the years, from True/Vera-Crypt to encrypted sparse bundles/images, and none have ever really felt right.
These days i tend to use Cryptomator[0] instead. It accomplishes what none of the others could do, which is transparent encryption across devices.
With Cryptomator, i simply create a vault somewhere in the cloud, stuff data in it, and i can access it from my laptop, phone or tablet, and not think much about it. It integrates into the normal file browsing APIs, and doesn't get in the way.
Because it does "per file" encryption, it also doesn't need to download a 20-100MB chunk from the cloud before decrypting, so it's rather fast (depending on file size of course).

Local encryption of files and folders
Cryptomator's arguably the most popular encryption software for cloud storage (you can give yourself zero-knowledge encryption by using them) - it's actually what they specialize & focus on (cloud encryption). It's 100% open source and Free to use on computers. On phones I believe it's just a 1-time fee of a few bucks ($13-14, then you have it forever) - note: their iOS offering is still new, so may be a bit unpolished at the moment.
