it,s also good to make website data easier to liberate by exporting easy to import formats like zipped txt or even ascii.

i ensure that entire web forum is exportable by any user as txt in such a way that cloned forum retains all relationships and even same credentials can be used.

using pgp libraries allows me compatibility with existing libraries and infrastructure, e.g. using existing ,,stable,, key to validate ownership of forum account, but also to generate user keys on the spot for in.forum use only.

this may seem like a tradeoff between security and convenience, and it is. additional verifiability can be accomplished by later signing blocks of hashes with more secure signing method.
