This tool, using age is pretty neat: https://github.com/ndavd/agevault. So simple, yet seemingly powerful!

@quark@ferengi.one Looks neat. How does this compare to gocryptfs? Same basic concept with a different backing file format?

@mckinley@twtxt.net agevault uses age, allegedly very secure (aiming to replace pgp/gpg). Comparing it with gocryptfs, from the user perspective, agevault seems simpler, though CLI exclusive. As the repository states, “Like age, it features no config options, allowing for a straightforward secure flow”. It would also run in all major OS platforms out of the box.

But agevault is also very new. Though age has been around for a while now, I don’t see an “audited” link (neither on agevault, nor age).
