What is Keybase?

End-to-end encryption plays a crucial role in safeguarding what is truly important. Keybase delivers a reliable platform for secure messaging and file sharing, employing public key cryptography to ensure the privacy of your communications, meaning that even the service itself cannot access your chats. It caters to a diverse audience, including families, roommates, clubs, and friend groups. Furthermore, Keybase enables users to connect with public identities, making it easier to interact with communities on social media platforms like Twitter and Reddit. To avoid unnecessary exposure of your valuable documents, Keybase creates a secure environment for storing your group’s photos, videos, and files, all protected by end-to-end encryption. Additionally, for heightened privacy, you can implement a timer on your most sensitive messages, making them accessible for only a limited duration. This robust security framework encourages individuals to communicate with confidence, alleviating fears about the potential compromise of their information. Ultimately, Keybase stands out as a comprehensive solution for those prioritizing privacy in their digital interactions.

    Interesting premise, lack of recent updates is disappointing

    Date: Nov 10 2021
    Summary

    As someone passionate about security, Keybase is *almost* a great way to get a more cryptographically secure experience without sacrificing too much in the way of UX. But, without any new updates in quite some time, longstanding bugs are becoming more and more annoying.

    Positive

    Having a place to securely store notes, files, code, and cryptocurrency without worrying about remembering passwords is super useful. The chat function also provides a similar level of security to e.g. Signal or WhatsApp, but with a much better user experience when switching devices, etc.

    Negative

    The app hasn't been updated much ever since Zoom bought out Keybase. Features still work, but nothing's gotten better in the past year or so. There isn't even a native M1 build.

    Use and Belive, it's an intuitive messaging tool

    Summary

    We are extremely happy with Keybase's chat room to start the conversation. We are using Keybase to solve our communication limitations that occur during remote work. It gives the power to chat and transfer files right from the message box.

    Keybase is a perfect messaging tool. You will enjoy it. No dislike.
