   Don't shift the goalpost please. We are talking about forgetting password for your email account. Now the part about attacking your email/domain: If somebody transfers your domain without your will you have to contact domain regis

   You are the paying customer, contrary to Google experience you can just call support and regain access. You can even contact domain registry directly and transfer your domain to other hosting if your current one will suddenly go out of busi

   Buy your own domain and hosting so you can always regain access to it. It's hackernews so it astounds me that most people posting here use some free email instead of paying few buck for own domain and hosting.

    Packet managers on pretty much every Linux distribution use GPG for verifying packages.

    Key management is a burden in every cryptosystem. I'm using KeePass and can recommend it, it works well.

    Backup, archivization, password managers, the list is long. Duplicity has many users: http://duplicity.nongnu.org Pass is also pretty popular on HN: https://www.passwordstore.org Both use GPG.

    Encrypted email is almost a marginal usage scenario for GPG compared to other uses. It does everything. It is everywhere.Yes it is big, nobody has to use all of it. Just like C++... oh wait it is unpopular on hacker news bubble too despite

    The same with "GnuPG is bad" mantra on hackernews. There is nothing better that GPG currently for all its functionality and the only answer you get when asking for substitute is don't use this function or use some obscure app
