GitHub gists are probably the best technical option. They come with versioning (I think), and have comment threads.

You're not responding to the main point. Here's tptacek's wording: > PGP does an absolutely dreadful job of key discovery, and further, there is no reason to couple one mode of "key discovery" to a signing tool.

> but still there is a long lived secret a user must maintain somewhere Of course. I'm not suggesting that there's no need to have long-lived private key material. But that does not require some thick GPG-keyring-style concept

It’s unclear to me any stateful keychains are implied here. The decrypting system has N number of keys available. It tries to authenticate the ciphertext with those N keys. If the ciphertext authenticates, then return the decrypted cleartex

I have searched. So far, the best solution I've found is setting up an Immich instance. Which is pretty preposterous, if you ask me.

But the terminal can provide capabilities that allow shell programs to do those things. See e.g. the Kitty graphics protocol: https://sw.kovidgoyal.net/kitty/graphics-protocol/

Is there not a suitable CLI or TUI client for Windows that can simply be called from within Windows Terminal? Honest question. I just know that on Linux, it'd be really weird to ask for my terminal emulator to embed a serial client rat

Assuming that your comment is in good faith, that comparison doesn't work in the way I think you're trying to make it work. systemd operates (when used normally) at a higher level of abstraction than a bucket-of-scripts/sysvi

I use fish’s abbreviations instead of aliases. That way I get control and visibility into the change, but can also gradually learn it too :)

Generally speaking, it's easier to have computation (logic, state, etc.) centralized. If the designers didn't prioritize scenarios where decentralization helped, then centralization would've been the better option.
