Re: "I gave up long ago on GnuPG and switched to age. age is..."
age has only a few commands compared to GnuPG and OpenSSl I can't say because I don't use it.

I gave up long ago on GnuPG and switched to age. age is pretty cool, but as a casual user I often forget the proper command line arguments combinations. Therefore I decided to create minicrypt, which only has two commands, -d decrypt and -g generate key pair. Encryption for a single recipient does not need a parameter. The nice thing, compared for example with GnuPG, is, it does not produce meta data and therefore is ideally suited for anonymous communications. [https link]
