age VS OpenKeychain

and echoing the result after converting to an age private key

I like that https://github.com/FiloSottile/age has small public keys.

It exists, it's called age..

Oh nevermind, age doesn't do any of that. Indeed, it doesn't even do email https://github.com/FiloSottile/age/issues/93

Encrypted secrets thanks to SOPS and Age

I never heard of "Age" before this post. Thank you to share. If others are interested to learn more, here are two other interesting posts about Age:

of all things I was able to resolve the issue via this github issue: https://github.com/FiloSottile/age/issues/370#issuecomment-1...

Why keep something secret on a public repo? Is that not an oxymoron?

Also, I’m terms of encryption something like age[0] makes it much easier to not shoot yourself in the foot.

Why RSA specifically? For backups, I recommend Tarsnap. But if you really don't want to pay for encrypted cloud hosting, then check out age encryption.

I wouldn't use OpenSSL personally. If you just need simple but secure symmetric encryption, checkout the scrypt(1) encryption utility from Tarsnap. If you need support for public keys, check out age(1).

In addition to my PC set up I am also using the Android Password Store in combination with OpenKeyChain. Everything works fine except that decrypting any password simply works without requiring my PIN. I've tried both USB C connection and NFC and neither interface requires the PIN.

OpenKeychain is an Android app for doing some basic GPG related work. It can verify signatures (hidden in the "encrypt/decrypt" menu)

Also it integrates i.e. with K-9 mail to sign and verify.

OpenKeychain https://www.openkeychain.org/ integrates with multiple apps for encrypting your mail, plain texts, backups, xmpp chats.

I don't know what features you are looking for in encryption software but OpenKeychain is foss, audited and works just fine if you just want basic encryption/decryption/signing.

OpenKeychain: Easy PGP (version 5.8.0): Encrypt your Files and Communications. Compatible with the OpenPGP Standard.

I use mailbox.org with the encrypted inbox, Mozilla Thunderbird on desktop, and FairEmail + OpenKeychain on Android. I think StartMail is the only other one of those four options that supports standard IMAP and SMTP.

On Android OpenKeychain, TermBot, and K-9 Mail, are awesome.

I would try openpgp, you can use https://www.gpg4win.org/ on windows and https://github.com/open-keychain/open-keychain (not actively developed, if someone knows a good alternative please comment) for android.
