Uninstalled because on Windows it registers itself to auto-start on boot no matter what you do. I keep removing it from the autostart places and it keeps registering back. I get it that they want to get usage telemetry, but it's ridiculous for a security focused app to force itself like that. https://github.com/keybase/keybase-issues/issues/2380 https://github.com/keybase/keybase-issues/issues/2380 https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/3904 https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/3904 https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/5990 https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/5990

The annoying part is that the operating system allows this and doesn’t have a good way for users to restrict service startup.

They don't seem to prioritize user choice on the linux version either, there's no snap/flatpak available nor a user friendly option to not mount the FUSE filesystem. https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/8264 https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/8264 https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/9191 https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/9191 https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/7846 https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/7846
