After self-hosting my email for twenty-three years I have thrown in the towel

K-9 Mail is an app available for Android which supports PGP (if clunkily).

<https://k9mail.app/>

I'm not going to remotely pretend that this would make PGP attractive or viable for the greater public. I do want to address your valid point that the general-purpose computer seems to be a dying breed, but that there are still options for mobile devices.

I've used K-9 Mail, though rarely do these days (it went poorly-maintained for a while).

There seem to be some options for iOS as well, such as iPG Mail, though I've no experience at all with it.

Most of my friends and family don't have Android devices.

Perhaps you might care to share with us what types of devices they do have, seeing as my mental telepathy transgizmatron happens to be in the shop presently.

Note that I also listed an iOS option, and mentioned that there are others.

Again: PGP-enabled email apps are available on many platforms, though, again, this addresses only a small part of the larger challenge at encouraging adoption.
