- Do any libraries exist for zero-trust file storage (storing client-encrypted data on the server without the key)?
-
JSON compression in the browser, with gzip and the Compression Streams API.
I have already built this into a small feature in my app, but I do plan to integrate it deeper and bake it into the core functionality soon. Which should be another interesting problem to solve as the app has integrated client-side encryption using Age (rage (rage-wasm)). But that's for another day...

age.el: age encryption support for Emacs
I just added rage (https://github.com/str4d/rage) support, which does support pinentry, see https://github.com/anticomputer/age.el#known-issues for an example of how to use rage instead.
- Axcrypt -- or is there something better Reddit would recommend?

The PGP Problem (2019)
Really appreciate this article. It's a little snarky but it hits the mark and encourages people to try Age, which is a pretty awesome little tool.

Ask HN: What does everyone use for encrypting their personal stuff?
I'm not convinced that whole-disk encryption is sensible for most threat models, but I use the built-in FileVault on macOS (under the reasoning that, at the very least, it can't really hurt).
On Linux, I use age[1] (specifically, rage[2]) to encrypt sensitive files. I wrote a secret manager that uses the latter as an encryption backend[3], and I use `rage-mount` to mount (read-only) views of encrypted archives.

This very hn entries is bust contradicting your statement.
Also what about syncthing[1] (for recurrent/permanent sync) and croc[2] (for one time copies) ?
I have used both for a number of years already.

CLI to browser P2P fileshare
I'm trying to find very specific software.I need CLI(!!!) tool like Croc to share files using P2P, but it's very inconvenient to ask people to install same software as me(Croc in this case). Instead i want to get direct download URL, so anyone can download it just by using browser.
