In the following post, https://www.qubes-os.org/intro/ was recommended as an improved way.

Need to encode, transmit, or store encrypted or signed data? saltpack is a streamlined, modern solution, designed with simplicity in mind. It is easy to implement & integrate. We've made few crypto decisions and instead leave almost all of the heavy lifting to the NaCl library.

saltpack is a binary message format, encoded using the MessagePack format. Messages are broken up into reasonable (1MB) chunks, over which regular NaCl operations are performed. We have taken pains to address many of the shortcomings of current message formats: (1) only authenticated data is output; (2) repudiable authentication is used wherever possible; (3) chunks cannot be reordered or combined with other transmissions; (4) the public keys of senders and recipients can be hidden; and (5) message truncation is detectable.

Implementations in Go and Python are available at https://saltpack.org/implementations  The format is used by https://keybase.io/

Fileworthy is intended to facilitate easy management of files and notes across many devices.

Interesting story about stolen ssh private keys.

Bitmessage is a P2P communications protocol used to send encrypted messages to another person or to many subscribers. It is decentralized and trustless, meaning that you need-not inherently trust any entities like root certificate authorities. It uses strong authentication which means that the sender of a message cannot be spoofed, and it aims to hide "non-content" data, like the sender and receiver of messages, from passive eavesdroppers like those running warrantless wiretapping programs. If Bitmessage is completely new to you, you may wish to start by reading the whitepaper https://bitmessage.org/bitmessage.pdf

Not sure how up to date it is, version 0.6.1 is dated 2016-08-21, the latest one  0.6.3.2 was released 2018-02-14

According to https://www.reddit.com/r/bitmessage/comments/cjxk9s/current_status_of_pybitmessage/ (2019-07-30) development is on-going.
This can also be seen on github, e.g. https://github.com/Bitmessage/PyBitmessage/issues/1712#issuecomment-830636842
One of the difficulties seems to be the transition from Python2 to Python3.

Uses proof-of-work.
