    Ok fediverse, I need some feedback/opinions on #keybase.io is this a solid solution for cryptography exchange? I've had a profile for going on 3 years now and have yet to use it for -anything- at all but PGP is becoming an integral part of my workflow.

    Should I rebase and start using my keybase presence for all this or am I better off doing a self-distributed "untrusted" key?

      I've been on #keybase.io for years to, as have a bunch of other people on the KWCrypto mailing list. We never use it.

        @bobjonkman This says a lot. IDK if you caught my follow ups that i'm only using it as a distribution point for validation that i am who i am and you can use that key to send me crypto (or fetch my pubkey) But i also mirror it in the public pgp mirrors too.

      @lazypower I just now saw this, but see the conversation at https://social.freedombone.net/notice/494597 for some discussion of #keybase.

        Trying to update my keybase.io account and failing. I think I'll just abandon it, because I don't think it adds any value over and above existing keyservers.
