Announcing FOKS, the Federated Open Key Service | The FOKS Blog
When we launched Keybase over 11 years ago,
we read a lot of good, well-informed feedback. We folded some
but not all of these suggestions into Keybase. Most important, you convinced us
that passwords are not a good long-term strategy for protecting
secret key material. As a result, we spent months ripping up the app and
pivoting to per-device keys,
which were clearly the right way to go. WhatsApp eventually caught up in 2023!
