Even reading this post stresses me out.

Every year or couple years I'd do it because gnupg2 is one of the worst user-hostile pieces of CLI software and I use it with smartcards (and now yubikeys).

Now apparently there are alternatives, allegedly sequoia supports openpgp smartcards so I might give it a shot soon: https://gitlab.com/sequoia-pgp/sequoia-keystore/


I had to write myself a multi page document after forgetting the process for multiple years in a row. I've been dreaming about writing a user friendly wrapper for it for a long time.
