Marcus AdamsI've finished my testing of #AGE vs. #GPG #encryption and published the results here:

@wiktor You asked to be kept abreast, here's the post.

Opposition MLAS are questioning the viability of school buses in P.E.I. after it was revealed that a bus involved in a January collision had exceeded the typical 11-year lifespan permitted for the vehicles.

It's Friday so I finally got time to sit down and do some of these benchmarks for comparing #GPG and #AGE for #encryption speed. Here's the results so far on an uncompressed .tar file, and an already compressed .tar.zst file. Gonna try to add SequoiaPGP to the list, if I can figure out how to do symmetric/password encryption with it.

Miss Kitty 🌈🌈🌈I can see that drop in #GDP from 30 to 20 trillion coming. That's going to make the #Great #Depression look like a you had to take a trip to the budget grocery store for a minute honey. What's coming now is a #Dark #Age not a depression. Enjoy the internet while you have one.
Katzenmann / CatpersonWell after that I looked at PGP and it seems like it does not yet support pq-secure key exchanges. Bummer.
So then I looked at this cool new thing AGE which apparently is the new kid on the block for encryption. They do support pq-security but when looking at their repo I saw that they started using AI for coding which makes me not want to trust it with encryption.
The Noob5 min #video by #Fireship summarising the #Age #Verification #Laws coming to your neighbourhood soon. Also how the #Linux #script turning your installation into a single use personalised #OS, thus not requiring you to collect any data!
This new Linux distro is breaking the law, by design…
So I think moving forward I'm switching to #AGE for file #encryption instead of #PGP. I occasionally make backup archives of various things and use passphrase encryption with #GPG to encrypt them before storing them. However, GPG is very slow for bigger files, and in some testing recently I discovered AGE is multiple times faster. Also, with their latest release they now support hybrid post #quantum assymmetric key pairs. So for encryption it can fully replace GPG.
