@crowgirl@hachyderm.io IIRC ecryptfs is the other encryption thing that distros commonly offer out of the box, besides LUKS, and it's not LUKS.

@crowgirl@hachyderm.io Okay, it looks like you can use mount to mount ecryptfs like a normal filesystem: mount -t ecryptfs /media/kubuntu/kubuntu_2404/home/... /mnt (with the .../home/... bit being wherever the ecryptfs encrypted files are) and then the decrypted view of your files shows up in /mnt assuming this is ecryptfs in the first place edit: but maybe mount the partition that has your encrypted files read-only, if you can. (mount -o remount,ro /dev/nvme1n1p2 should do that.)
