Whatever happened to libsodium that was designed to provide vetted cryptographic primitives with a modern API? https://doc.libsodium.org/doc

libsodium is great if you only need to interoperate with other software using libraries that sound like “sodium”. This is generally not helpful for the kinds of things that people use OpenSSL for.

Still great, but the primitives it provides aren't necessarily the ones you need.
