Gocryptfs is another alternative in the same vein. I've switched to it from Cryptomator as it has better Android support and is more ergonomic on the command line.

What I haven't found a solution for, is being able to synchronise and open a gocryptfs with cloud sync on Android. Dropbox/Drive/pCloud folders aren't directly accessible or mounted in Android. One work-around could be to export a zip of the folder from Dropbox/whatever, then extract and open that, but that's one-way.

Do you have a solution for this?

I use syncthing for this. But yeah it isnt ideal.

Likely won't be of much help with the cloud sync angle, but for CryFS and GocryptFS support in Droid, you might find DroidFS worth a look.

Yep unfortunately the same still applies with DroidFS. Thanks though.
