Syncthing: Untrusted Device Encryption
I know that cryfs[1] is resilient to at least the first of these, and possibly the second as well. I don't know if cryfs allows to modify the base directory while the filesystem is online, if it does then it might already be a better solution for syncthing, if you only care about Linux.
On the flip side syncthing could incorporate cryfs's base directory format instead of their home-grown one.

File-by-file encryption tool? (Cryptomator alternative)
It sounds like cryfs might be helpful for this. It stores an encrypted directory in the cloud but mounts the decrypted contents locally on your hard drive so you can work with them. I'm still looking into it myself but it appears to have been designed to let people use cloud storage without ever revealing the contents to the provider.

Vaults vs. Cryptomator? Security, Cloud syncing, integration?

Encrypt Folder or Files before uploading to Cloud
The only apparently decent choice I could find is CryFS. Downside: It is not deemed fully stable (see here). But you should have backups anyways. In that case, it should be OK to use.

Encrypt Data for GDrive
Check out CryFS and Cryptomator. Both encrypt your files locally and then save them to the cloud storage.

As the bipartisan EARN IT act was reintroduced in Feb 2022 by Lindsey Graham and Richard Blumenthal along with the SMART Copyright Act of 2022, companies are already gearing up with full surveillance and content scanning of files....
CryFS was made for this. Have a look at https://www.cryfs.org/.

Cryptomator – Encrypt files on your cloud storage
True, they can see files sizes and you don't get integrity. But for less than top-secret stuff I'd take that tradeoff over CryFS performance issues with large files:

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.
If you're using automated syncing, there are certain benefits for using vault tools such as Cryptomator, as you can more readily add files, folders to an existing container. But you need to keep a local copy of the Cryptomator vault (folder and all files), on your computer at all times.

Best secure and encrypted cloud service?
For a secure cloud storage setup, I use Cryptomator, accessible at https://cryptomator.org/, on my Android device, and Mountain Duck, available at https://mountainduck.io/, on my desktop. This configuration enables me to choose my own storage provider on a pay-as-you-go basis. My preferred storage provider is S3, mainly because it facilitates easy backup of cloud files on my NAS or via tools such as WinSCP, which can be found at https://winscp.net/eng/index.php.
