    Cryptomator's arguably the most popular encryption software for cloud storage (you can give yourself zero-knowledge encryption by using them) - it's actually what they specialize & focus on (cloud encryption). It's 100% open source and Free to use on computers. On phones I believe it's just a 1-time fee of a few bucks ($13-14, then you have it forever) - note: their iOS offering is still new, so may be a bit unpolished at the moment.

    7-Zip is an open-source file archiver with a compression ratio higher than that of its main competitors.
    The simplest is 7-Zip. Enable “encrypt file names” in encryption options. Where you need to upload multiple separate folders, it's often more manageable than vault types, such as Cryptomator. Especially when manually uploading.
