If you're looking for a Keybase replacement, check out Peergos (https://peergos.org https://peergos.org). Peergos is a P2P E2EE global filesystem and application protocol that's: * fully open source (including the server) and self hostable * has a business model of charging for a hosted version * designed so that you don't need to trust your server * audited by Cure53 * fine-grained access control * identity proofs with controllable visibility * encrypted applications like calendar, chat, social media, text editor, video streamer, PDF viewer, kanban * custom apps - you can write your own apps for it (HTML5), which run in a sandbox which you can grant various permissions * designed with quantum resistance in mind You can read more in our tech book (https://book.peergos.org https://book.peergos.org) or source (https://github.com/peergos/peergos https://github.com/peergos/peergos) Disclaimer: co-founder here

can communication happen across servers/vendors like in Matrix?
- ianopolous 4y ago
  Yes, it's P2P. Anyone on any server can share and communicate with anyone on any other server. You can also migrate server unilaterally and keep your social graph without needing to tell everyone, all links to your stuff continue to work afterwards.

Hmm, I'm looking for a Keybase replacement but one of the main reasons I use Keybase is their native apps that let you mount the cloud storage as a FUSE or FUSE-like (Dokan) native storage device. This is great for distributing encrypted keychains/configuration files and the such across various platforms (where many apps are not cloud-aware but are happy interacting with the filesystem). So far the "mount" approach seems to have also performed considerably better than syncing-based services (dropbox, G drive, OneDrive etc.) which from time to time have resulted in hard to untangle merge errors. Peergos looks promising but it also looks to be a web-only service, so not exactly a replacement yet. Would be nice to see an option for local native mounting. Preferably via a native app with a FUSE-like mount point, but I'd also probably be OK with something like WebDAV maybe.

  We have a FUSE mount and CLI. For details see: https://github.com/peergos/peergos#fuse-native-folder-mounting-of-peergos https://github.com/peergos/peergos#fuse-native-folder-mounti...

    Ooh, good to know. This should really be advertised a bit more in the website... I want straight to the website and it doesn't mention local mounting in the features at all and no screenshots show anything about local mounts either...

Looks interesting. Built on top of IPFS?
- ianopolous 4y ago
  Yep, we built a super minimal ipfs replacement - ipfs-nucleus (https://github.com/peergos/ipfs-nucleus https://github.com/peergos/ipfs-nucleus) with added block level access control, which is also post-quantum.
