Has really everyone fogotten that you can use tools like GPG? What fucked up timeline is this?

Honest question: how many email-havers do you think know what GPG is?

If they don’t know what GPG is then why are they using Proton?
drislands@lemmy.world 6 months ago
…what? How is that related at all?
CriticalMiss@lemmy.world 6 months ago
GPG has a chicken and egg problem. I have mine publicized on Ubuntu’s key server, which is likely one of the bigger ones (but iirc it is of little relevance as it syncs with other keyservers). Out of the emails I am sent only one of my contacts bothers with encryption. Which is sad, but what can you do? The web mail interfaces rarely if ever support GPG, and even if they do sharing your key with them defeats the purpose.

What do you do? Choose provoders that allow using a standard mail client.

Well, there was a time somewhere in the early 10s when i was preaching to everyone who wanted to listen (and especially to those who doesn’t) how important email encryption is. The result? At least half oft my contacts use encryption (but its a pretty nerdy and paranoid bunch anyways)
