Encrypting without full disk encryption question

https://piefed.ca/post/20662

OpenBSD users, can you tell me your experience of full-disk encryption on a SSD?

Is the encryption overhead noticiable compared to plain SSD? Or is it as slow as HDD?
How often have you lost files due to a poweroff letting your partition on an inconsistent state?

#Linux folks who #encrypt; Do you encrypt everything, or just your /home partition?

My new video about VeraCrypt just released on @tilvids
From this video, you can get familiar with VeraCrypt, the encryption technology it uses, and how you can use it to create file containers and encrypted partitions

So. Linux

My PC runs Linux (Fedora) and with the current gen Hardware in it the ancient old Question pops up again: Full Disk Encryption or not?

At least some ciphers should be HW-accellerated (AES-SNI). But then there is the hassle of entering the password. And the annoyance.

But on the other side...

What do you guys think?

Is there a good way to have a #Linux server reboot unattended when the root partition is dm_crypt encrypted? I'm not super worried about bad guys being physically present. More just worried that a power outage might initiate a reboot while I am not present.

Is including the key file in the initramfs (correct terminology?) that horrible a thing if physical access to the machine is not a concern?

Thoughts or advice?
