In fact I’d say gpg is even more singularly useful than git. Git has competitors which are superior to it in nearly every way; gpg does not, and likely won’t.

- dale_glass 3y agoGPG doesn't have competitors because modern security thought rejects the approach and treats it as a relic. The modern thought is that security can't be an add-on, it needs to be part of the system. So encryption for a chat client and encryption for a web browser, and signatures on a binary are all different problems to be solved differently.
