EDS was the only one supporting encfs as far as I know… That’s bad for me, but I guess I may be the only person still using it…
Apparently, encfs is not maintained anymore either.
EncFS has been dormant for a long time now. I haven’t used or worked on EncFS in many years. I’ve left the repository here because I don’t want to prevent anyone from using it if they have a need that can’t be met otherwise. I’m sure that I have some very old backups that would still require EncFS to access, so I expect that I might have to compile it again someday.
Don’t expect any updates on this project. You’re free to fork it, of course, but remember that this is a 20+yr old codebase which was only funded by personal interest, so I wouldn’t expect it to live up to modern-day coding standards.
If you’re considering setting up a new encrypted filesystem wrapper, I’d recommend looking into newer alternatives, such as the excellent GoCryptFS.
DroidFS is on F-Droid and supports gocryptfs.
Yeah, I know. But it works and the security issue found is not applicable for my use case. I’ve been using it for too many years and it will be a pain to move.
But I knew the day would come and I guess fdroid dropping it means that this is it. I’m actually surprised there were option for encfs for so long.
Is Fennec really maintain by F-Droid? All links (even the code/repo) point to Mozilla’s official website.
