> Seriously: how is PGP something that mostly works

The entire Debian infrastructure is secured with PGP. PGP emails, PGP signatures, PGP encryption.

Seriously: it doesn't just "mostly work". It's rock solid battle tested for 20 years, and thousands of people use it without needing hand holding.

The topic here is “PGP in e-mail”, not PGP full stop. It’s all in the TFA, including a comprehensive list of reasons why it does not just work. Even with handholding, let alone without. If you disagree with any of those specific examples, please do elaborate, but at least address them. They’re good points.

Nobody is suggesting people switch to Signal for distributing .debs...
