Things that suck about the PGP ecosystem 1/10: Looking for keys on keyservers rarely works for me. Either there's some issue contacting the keyserver, the key isn't there (or is under a different email), or there's lots of keys and I have to make a wild guess.

Things that suck about the PGP ecosystem 2/10: The plugin I use (Enigmail) seems to use weird hacks to prevent plaintext from leaking when Thunderbird tries to automatically save drafts of my email. Who knows how reliable that is at actually preventing leakage.

Things that suck about the PGP ecosystem 3/10: I've sent a plaintext email that I meant to encrypt at least a few times. Enigmail always warns me if I'm sending plaintext email, but at this point I anticipate and instinctively click through that dialogue in milliseconds.

Things that suck about the PGP ecosystem 4/10: If you just want to sign your mail, PGP adds an ugly block of garbage in the visible part of the message (annoying on mailing lists, news groups, and for people who have no idea what PGP is).

Things that suck about the PGP ecosystem 5/10: I never use the web of trust feature; I never learned how. I just verify the key as best I can then google the commands to set the key's trust to "ultimate" to make Enigmail's messages turn green.

Same here. Has anybody ever used the PHP web of trust feature? And confidence levels beyond “trust ultimately”?
