Why not just compress a directory then encrypt that?

Why do the tech heads show why it won’t be adopted mainstream any time soon?

Linux doesn’t always work. We know that. But it looks like you’re misconstruing your specific issue with some broader argument for Linux being mainstream. The fact that you connected it to a switch tells me that youre already more advanced than the average user. I get you’re annoyed, but you can also just ask about your specific issue.
