I agree with your assessment about key change management. With that said, I do like the device history trail that Keybase uses. Keybase has a better multi-device story - in that it has a multi-device story at all. I understand what they're trying to do preserving message history - I do prefer my conversations to be ephemeral by default.
I'm OK with the compromise that Signal has made with key management -- there are people that I really care to have private communication with, and people who I prefer to have private communication with. I verify the former, and don't bother with the latter unless we happen to be bored together in the same room.
On a side note, thanks for your efforts over the last two years!
- idlewords 8y agoThe user base for Keybase and Signal is so different that it makes sense to have such different behaviors. Thanks very much for the kind words!
- chb 8y agoI would have thought that these two groups would have more in common than not. Who do you think constitutes these disparate user bases and how are their perceived expectations different?
