Comparison of cloud storage encryption software
In my opinion, the best choice from a security point of view would be cryfs. It features full data obfuscation, good encryption, mechanisms that prevent replaying old files or swapping files. The documentation is clear and we can see the design choices are explained with ease and clearly.
But to be honest, I would recommend cryptomator to someone who want a nice graphical interface, easy to use software and whose threat model allows some metadata reveal. It is also available everywhere (although not always for free), which is something to consider.
