In which use case? :-D *If I want to keep files only for me, i use gpg with a keyfile.
I use kde dolphin as file-manager. It has an option in the context menu to en-/decrypt files or folder with gpg. The really cool feature is the recovery :) If I break my gui - what, of course, never will happen because I use a nvidia card :-D , i can easy access my data in a shell. *If I want to share files with trusted users, i use gpg with a password. *If I need a backup, i use borgbackup for 1/2 year now and it's easy to use, fast and powerful. I run two small scripts, basically a list of borg options, as cron jobs and get a mail with the repo status after every run.
