How do you do PGP crypto on your phone? I know about OpenKeychain app, but would you recommend encrypting files, text and having private key on phone?

I've bought "Gulag Archipelago" by Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn, looking forward to reading it

If you are having problems for GPG password prompt due to non existent display just add this in your .bashrc file for GPG to prompt for password in CLI:

It made it crash, Slack made the browser crash
