Comment on Ask HN: Are you still using Keybase?

Comments

Nope. Not since they started storing people's private keys on their servers.

For me, that was the "they've jumped the shark" moment.

Wasn’t that always optional?

Yes. Your private keys are not stored on their servers unless you hand them your private keys for PGP (specifically).

Yeah. Just the fact they allowed it at all was the complete turn off for me. :/
