Securing your files is now a lot easier 😉

Nextcloud Hub 26 Winter extends end-to-end encryption features in the browser:
• Encryption set-up
• Changing permissions for encrypted files
• Request encrypted file drops

Honestly, I have tried a number of times to implement this, but each time it has resulted in me corrupting the files for my users and myself and causing a lot of connection headaches.
I would absolutely love to enable the feature if I knew I could use it confidently without interrupting my work or my users.

3 worst days of my day job in 2020. never again. i think it is irresponsible that you continue to advertise these traps (they're not features) 😖

changed to Cryptomator, due to previous unreliability of NC E2EE, which consistently caused crashes and corruption of data.
