What's your opinion on recent sequoia implementation? I've heard your arguments numerous times and was quite convinced, but that project and their offsprings (openpgp-ca, hagrid, ..) and other stuff like wkd seem to drag the ecosystem to something nicer. I consider it promising.
- tptacek 5y agoI think things written in Rust are better than things written in C. I think modern AEAD cryptography is better than the 90s cryptography that GPG uses. I think the PGP installed base mires the whole ecosystem in C code that accidentally goes quadratic just trying to parse keys, no matter what happens with Sequoia. It's a good project --- this TUI is probably a good project too --- but in a doomed ecosystem.
