Picocrypt, Kryptor or Hat?
Which features are you looking for? Just encryption, or also signatures? Do you want to encrypt messages, files or both? All the applications that you mention are more or less experimental, and to that degree I will add https://github.com/covert-encryption/covert which I am one developer of.

Real-World Cryptography by David Wong (2021) Book Review
Yes, hiding ephemeral keys and signatures is something that Covert Encryption that I am working on implements. But using Elligator 2 by itself is not enough and it turns out that very few people in the world know how to do it right (I gather that Loup Vaillant did his own research a couple of years back, although he did consult Reddit for it, and as far as I can tell, no-one else had published an implementation prior to his MonoCypher).

Text encryption software for encrypting notes
Industry standard, no. And most encryption software don't offer the ability to edit files directly. There certainly are websites that can do this in your browser completely locally, if you trust the Javascript they send you, and the implementations which are usually by someone just learning cryptography.

AEAD output format
To avoid revealing anything in plain text (presumably you would put authentication headers and perhaps the message length in AD), see how we handle it in Covert Encryption: https://github.com/covert-encryption/covert/blob/main/docs/Specification.md

Why did they do it this way?
On #2 there is a format and toolset that I am working on with similar goals, for message and file encryption. You can use either shared passphrases or 25519 public keys to protect your data. It is and will always be completely free in both meanings of the word. https://github.com/covert-encryption/covert

Sunday Daily Thread: What's everyone working on this week?
Just pushed out another release of https://github.com/covert-encryption/covert/ which is a tool that encrypts files and messages faster and better than anything else, and produces much shorter output than PGP, suitable to be used on message boards because it can fit even in a Twitter message. 100 % Python code of course.

Modern signing and encryption
PGP pretty much sucks in file encryption too. It uses bad default settings and runs very slowly. Age is far better and I am working on one that should be even faster and more secure, using modern cryptography only. https://github.com/covert-encryption/covert
