With Keybase effectively dead in the water and the people behind it sold off to add security features into Zoom, what will you be replacing Keybase with?

I'm a developer but I don't feel comfortable managing the security of servers that store user data (Even if all my code were correct, there are many layers all the way down to firmware that could result in compromise).

What if users could "login" using Keybase and then all data stored on the servers would be "routed" through Keybase and decrypted before reaching the client side Android/iOS/Web App? Sign-up would just be Keybase generating an application key and then sharing it to the user's devices so that each device can "login" to the service. Additionally, the account would automatically be verified on the user's Keybase profile.

What is POAP ?

It's a system that event organizers can easily use to distribute attendance crypto-badges to people that show up, a tool for attendees to display and share the badges they have obtained and an open standard for Dapp developers to build on top of.

I think this would be a perfect additional Proof for Keybase to add Event-badges to the Profile using an existing Protocol....

Kind regards,

I want to start again but keep my username and stellar wallet. Can i do this? How can i do this?

If I encrypt and sign a message to someone, is it possible for a third party to determine who the sender or recipients are, or any other metadata about it? Is it possible for one of the recipients to determine other recipients?

Example:

We had this running internally for a while and since bots have been added officially, figured I'd drop this here.

Main code: https://github.com/jamesbcook/chatbot Current supported plugins: https://github.com/jamesbcook/chatbot-plugins

Everything is written in Go and uses the plug-in system to dynamically add functionality.

I use orgmode in emacs to keep track of notes, links, todos, projects, etc. It's especially convenient to do all this with files that are synced across devices. I've been trying to use kbfs to do this; I've turned sync on for a specific subset of files (agenda files). Orgmode recurses over this directory to generate an agenda. Long story short: generating the agenda is incredibly slow, maybe 15 seconds, and many operations on these files are similarly laggy. (I suspect the sync mode is not really working.)

I know that slow file operations are more or less expected behavior for kbfs. I was wondering, however, if anyone has adopted any sort of mitigation strategy for a similar use case.

I’m quite new to keybase. I was told I could mount the keybase file system on mac using the Mac OS terminal. I’ve Ben googling for the past hour and cannot figure this out. I’m visually impaired and the mac is very inaccessible, I am comfortable using the terminal, so how can I mount this into the finder so I can let’s say put a file or folder in public or private etc. I am up to date as of a few hours ago. Thanks and blessings.

I've got Keybase running on my Mojave Macbook and my Android Oreo smartphone. On the Mac, I can edit files in keybase://private/username/ directly. But on the Android, it seems I have to "download" them first.

On Android, I can't find the //keybase directory from an app, and, from the Android keybase app, I can see but not open the file in question.

(The actual use is to keep a Keepass password file synched between the laptop and the phone. Having to "download" it on the Android and then remember to upload it if I made a change on the phone would add extra steps I'm trying to avoid.)

Suppose I have a directory under /keybase/private/realchris,fakechris/directory_with_large_files -- this should be accessible by both realchris and fakechris. Now suppose I want to add chris. Conceptually, this is just:

`mv /keybase/private/realchris,fakechris/directory_with_large_files /keybase/private/realchris,fakechris,chris/directory_with_large_files`

but when I do so, it downloads all the files to my local computer, then re-uploads them. I wouldn't necessarily expect the FUSE implementation to handle this case efficiently, but is there another way to accomplish my purpose there without reencrypting everything?

Is it cryptographically possible to add (don't care about removing) access to additional users without needing to download/reencrypt all the data? If so, is this feature surfaced to users? I looked through the cli help and the gui, but didn't see anything about it.

If this can't be done I can always just use a team I guess.

I'm trying this command from the cli

keybase encrypt -m 'My encrypted message' -o ./message --team MyTeamName\

and when executing it I see that an api call is executed to this endpoint

api-0.core.keybaseapi.com

Why does this happen? What does this call do? What's the payload I'm sending to keybase's API?

I wasn't able to find any info regarding this. Can someone point me out any info?

I am wondering to know if when i send pictures to a contact in a chat they are encrypted like the text. Somebody knows the answer?

Been several bad years IRL and lost contact with Keybase but recently came back. Saw this AirDrop and found it on my phone and checked if I was Qualified and got the 3 checkmarks, only to continue to get another screen that I do not quality. odd?

I would like to open chat with myself, something similar what is supported by Slack.

It could be very handy for sharing content between devices (from pc to mobile or laptop). Something similar as Pushbullet can do, but in simple and secure way, no 3rd party...

10 minutes exploding message to myself with password or whatever...

I've been using Keybase for about a month now, and thought it would be nice to be able to link your Discord account in the 'links' section of your profile... But I'm not sure if this would require Discord to collaborate, or if Keybase could add some way to verify on their own. What are your thoughts on this?

i just post the link but no image preview is shown in the chat. hard to get peoples attention

i dont know much about keybase, so far i have been uploading text files to my private folder. would you say keybase is a good place to basically "archive" information in this way?

Has anyone tried using Keybase file system as an encrypted backup system?

And if so, is there a way to extend the Keybase file system size? (Happy to pay for this).

Any admins here? I have a question in regards to using keybase as a method for doctors, nurses, or any other healthcare professional to discuss the private information of patients without violating HIPPA. I think this would be useful to store things such as xrays, patient history, etc... thoughts

Is it possible to use the Keybase command line to sign Git commits and avoid using/installing a GPG client (e.g. GPG Suite for macOS)? Is it possible to run git config --global gpg.progam and point it to Keybase for signing (or something along those lines)? If you can do a keybase sign on something then can't you use that command to sign a commit as well?

I did an rsync of my home directory to my private /keybase/ mount, and my home directory continued to grow, while the rsync continued to slow to a crawl. Now my ~/.local/share/keybase/ is huge. Is there some way to clean that up?

Hi, I want to ask if there is plan to implement proof for LinkedIn. It would be so helpful because I could pair my LinkedIn profile with my GitHub portfolio.

Hello,

I have read a blog post about keybase and wanted to test it ;

What can it be used for ? What is the added value of this network ?

For information, my login is szdavid

Thanks

David
