We use windows at work, which is annoying as a software developer, and I WFH three days a week. I need some files available on both machines and cloud is the best option. I’m not about to be taking a flash drive between home and work.
If you are comfortable with a cli you could use gnupg. Its man page is good.
If I have cloud storage mounted somewhere I need to be able to drag and drop directories in and out, see the files inside in an unencrypted form, and they should transparently be uploaded encrypted.
This could very well be achieved by a bunch of scripts involving gnupg, but then that’s what’s I’m looking for, because gnupg by itself wouldn’t be productive to use unless as a one-off.
Use Cryptomator. You can then use any cloud storage provider knowing they can’t read your files.
Or just don’t use cloud storage bruh
it’s good for 3-2-1 backup rule though. but you can also ask a relative or a friend to let you plug a NAS to their router.
Not always an option.

Don’t you use git?
I use syncthing, which works great unless you need a ton of space.
Syncthing is a piece of crap.
We have a list of approved software we can install and that isn’t one of them.
Why not? It’s another useful area to use as a backup.
or just pgp encrypt them
What tool would you recommend for that?
kleopatra is good, just make sure to backup your private key. If you are comfortable with a cli you could use gnupg. Its man page is good.
