  "textContent": "I would also nudge a bit towards Cryptomator too. Since it has a GUI, and is a bit easier to use than Rclone crypt. I do think you need the official provider sync tool to use with Cryptomator. You also need to download/sync your files locally before you can decrypt. With Rclone, encryption/decryption is done on the fly.\n\nYou also don’t need the official sync tool from your provider with Rclone. While it’s better if a provider supports Rclone directly ( Documentation ), you can still use Rclone with SFTP (for Hetzner and rsync), and S3.\n\nFor me, I use Rclone mount with Rclone crypt for my Linux machine to backup some media with my custom bash script. I use Rclone more for automated backups. I have Rclone mounted as a folder in KDE Dolphin, under /mnt/rclone-folder. Kinda like if I mounted a hard drive to my Linux machine\n\nThe following is a command i have in a bash script to mount rclone:\n\n`rclone mount`**`--volname`**`rclone-box rclone-box-encrypt: /mnt/rclone-folder/`\n\nI used this guide to setup Rclone crypt with my provider. Setup end-to-end encrypted cloud drive using rclone · Szymon Krajewski\n\nThere is RoundSync for android too. You can also try Rclone with Termux",
