Help with basic steps in an application design
2) Which cryptographic library would be recommended for this purpose? I've seen people using PyCrypto (https://github.com/pycrypto/pycrypto) which seems simple enough, but that one seems not maintained anymore. I've also seen keyring.cryptfile (https://github.com/frispete/keyrings.cryptfile) and pyca/cryptography (https://github.com/pyca/cryptography) but I'm not really sure if any of those should actually be used for my purpose?

Please Help. I have installed everything yet tnote dos note work, there is nothing on the net now.
The specific bug you are having is in this issue of PyCrypto. That said, tnote should move on as PyCrypto is no longer maintained.. Ideally, tnote could migrate to PyCryptodome which is a near drop in replacement for PyCrypto, so "potentially" a single line of code change.

Daily General Discussion - December 28, 2022
Install pycryptodome instead, it's forked from pycrypto (which is dead) and is actively maintained by the same team.
- Weird error when running revdep-rebuild (failed to split pycryptodome package)

Hello there, I have something to ask for those who use tidal-dl on termux to download hi-res music. I was new to this and i followed every command on downloading tidal-dl, but whenever I've got in "pip3 install --upgrade tidal-dl" it always ended up like this, I'm so tired try and tried it again.
Possibly not a termux only issue (see this).

Picocrypt - A FOSS 3MB Encryption Tool!
I know what you mean and I understand your concern. As it currently stands, I can say with a high level of confidence (although not complete) that Picocrypt is very secure. That's because Picocrypt uses ChaCha20, which is a simple cipher to implement correctly and without errors. It's extensively documented. I have a solid understanding of cryptography and I carefully choose a Python cryptography library with over 1k stars do implement ChaCha20. I know that there's a lot of responsibility when making security software, which is why I'm accepting donations to get Picocrypt audited as soon as possible (ideally within a year). Thanks for your feedback, I appreciate it.
