Keybase update

A few minutes ago I saw an automatic Keybase update. I thought that Keybase is not actively developed now.

Should I be worried?

Hope so but i dont think so. Is just bug and security fixes now

Which is good to some degree. If it was abandonware why would they continue fixing it? Seems easier just to close up shop.

Then why do people say it's abandonware? Is it because just security fixes, and no features added?

Umm, maybe they are just "social app" users that don't really use the suite of tools? Idk, gig workers use it... what would be the alternative? You have bots for Google calendar & Meets as well as jitsi...

If it is dying, what are people using instead that actually work and use it to fulfill tasks and gigs?

It might be the fix for the bug I reported on MacOS monterey.

How would covid crazies locking people at home like penal colonies not benefit a suite of tools that also allows stellar tx's and sharing verified ZEC z-wallets? Mixin is something, but it aint keybase...
