Hi! :) Just as clarification, I do have experience, but I think such software should be externally reviewed by more people instead of just trusting the developer and their knowledge. However, something I do not have experience with is developing code that is free and open source, so that’s maybe where my somewhat confusing statement came from ':) (edited it to be clearer). One thing is to program stuff that isn’t really important to get paid, and the other thing wanting to double, tripple and quadruple check so you don’t create a security risk for your friends and other like-minded people.
Yeah gpg is super powerful and simple to use if you are comfortable in the terminal, but at least a lot of people that I know would never do this.
As I say in the repo, the program is not meant to replace Veracrypt or Kleopatra (or terminal based gpg), but to be a viable option if the user is not comfortable with anything else, which would be the case for many of the people that I know.
It also incorporates some features that would otherwise be needed to be done separately in tedious processes (e.g. the program protects file names, includes sss directly into the cipher/decipher pipeline, print options and more).

But yeah, it is kind of in a niche I guess.
