if by "great" you really mean "fine".

It's still brittle, awkward and puzzlingly awful UX despite being the literal standard for the platform.

Compare it to any of the actively maintained alternatives, Filevault for MacOS (which is wonderful and never sends your key to be kept somewhere else) or LUKS on Linux.. heck, even Veracrypt is actually easier to understand and more robust.
