@gerowen it’s not available in Arch, because #gpg decided to roll their own kyber algorithms instead of using the ones that the rest of the #openpgp community standardised on. They’re just as secure, but different enough to not interoperate with everyone else. Most linux distros are refusing to ship them as a result. See e.g. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php?title=GnuPG&oldid=860217#OpenPGP_compatibility

Using a VM to poke around with updated #GPG from their repos and it offers hybrid post #quantum key types (ECC/Kyber) now with the following options for Kyber:

(1) Kyber 768 (bp256) *default*
(2) Kyber 1024 (bp384)
(3) Kyber 768 (X25519)
(4) Kyber 1024 (X448)

It's probably already available in Arch and its derivatives, but it probably won't hit the longer lived distributions like Debian or Fedora for a little while yet, but it's a thing now.

@petrillic @filippo so basically a "drop-in replacement" without a "fucky-wucky syntax" like (GnuPG & OpenPGP has)?

A stupid question... If I change my GPG passphrase, will I still be able to decrypt all my previously encrypted files with the new passphrase?

In case you also want to mess around with backing up your pass repo.

I have been dragged into the rabbit hole of GnuPG/LibrePGP VS Sequoia/OpenPGP and, boy it is ugly. Yeah, yeah, I know, PGP is bad, but of all the ugly things that could have happened to the FOSS crypto space, this is really unwelcome. I wish people would just sit at a table and talk.

Maybe it's too hot today and my brain isn't working. Can anyone with experience/insight into Forgejo and Gitea explain to me what the point is of the server signing commits (e.g. merge, initial commit, wiki etc.)? Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but the whole point of signing commits is as an authenticity check. If an attacker would gain access to a user's account that has the permission to trigger any of these actions, the signature mechanism does not allow differentiating between a legitimate and compromised commit. The only case I can think of where this might be useful is if someone would try to pass off an unsigned commit to look like it has been done by the server, whereas legitimate commits by the server have been signed. Without an option to block unsigned commits entirely this seems a bit like security theater though, if my threat model isn't entirely wrong. Thoughts?
