I run a small business with a few friends and Keybase has been great for us. It got all that we need: chat with channels, file sharing with a folder structure and git. That it's end-to encrypted* is a great bonus.
Since Zoom announced that bought Keybase yesterday, we are no longer comfortable depending on Keybase and will transition to other services.<p>What are some replacements to the features Keybase offers?<p>*proper e2e, not in the lame way Zoom described its interpretation of e2e...
So far I've replaced Keybase with:<p>Association of keys with identity -> <a href="https://keys.pub/" rel="nofollow">https://keys.pub/</a><p>Git -> Github via git-remote-gcrypt<p>IM -> Telegram. Not a proper replacement, but works for most of my contacts. Something really secret can be shared via GPG. I guess for your small business a self-hosted Mattermost instance will fit.<p>Files and directories sharing -> syncthing. I use it mostly between my devices.
There’s been some discussion on this topic here, though a slightly different angle, just for reference - <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23103386" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23103386</a>
Does anyone know of an equivalent product/solution for the cryptographically-linked social media identities feature of Keybase?<p>Technically the cryptographic links can still be verified even if Keybase doesn't exist anymore, but they did provide a user-friendly interface to set them up, etc.
Keybase Chat -> Matrix/Riot
Zoom -> Jitsi Meet<p>Both of the above alternatives are end to end encrypted (E2EE)<p>As for the social keys aspect of Keybase, hope that Keybase open sources their solution.
I wish there were a way to tie my existing GPG keys to a keys.pub account.<p>As it is, I'm probably going to add a well-known to my personal website with my keys.
You can get all this by running your own server. The plus side of this is that you will also protect a lot more meta data this way (not all, but more).<p>On your own server, you can host your own git repos, your own IRC server, and your own file storage.
