This is basically what I’ve been telling people for years. Prototype in Python to get the concepts down, then when you’re serious about the project, write it in a serious language.

Yep, definitely situational depending on your risk model/tolerance; pretty cool idea nonetheless.

This seems like a cool idea, but also somewhat questionable from a security standpoint? Isn’t distributing the encrypted content alongside the means to decrypt it (i.e. bundling this all in one file which is sent to the client) essentially equivalent to providing physical access to an encrypted drive? Like an attacker with enough time and effort could bypass the encryption.

Ahh good callout, I didn’t see the filename.

Just a heads up, all of the reference links are busted as far as I can tell.

I’m 99% for markdown you want to do:

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet [link text][unique name]

…

[unique name]: website URL

Edit: removed actual URL because my Lemmy client was formatting it for markdown lol
