Started using Keybase as per recommendation from @wfbutton for another group that I amp art of. To be honest, it works great and feels Lille a solid product. Plus the encryption and privacy are great. Apps are solid too.

New Keybase release with sweet oft-requested features: custom emojis, and crypto functions (encrypt/decrypt/verify/sign) on mobile. Amazing work as always by this team!

It’s an unusual time to celebrate anything, but we’re unveiling a new project today, and I want my team to know I’m so proud of them. Please check out Keybase Book, our latest project. book.keybase.io

Today I'd like to share a free little game I made. I know it's 2023, but it requires a real keyboard (or gamepads), so no phones. It's for 1 or 2 players sitting at the same browser. Introducing Tippy Coco. tippycoco.com

On the one hand, she is an absolute badass in that she can play the horn without a mouthpiece. On the other, I think she’s overly concerned about falling debris.

I've been working on a new system called FOKS -- the federated open key service. There's a blog post that got picked up on hacker news discussing the launch: news.ycombinator.com/item?id=445000…

FOKS by Max Krohn "is like Keybase, but fully open-source and federated, with SSO and YubiKey support": blog.foks.pub/posts/introduc…

FOKS v0.1.2 is out! New features include Bot Tokens and a REST-based interface to the KV store. Follow foks for future updates. See github.com/foks-proj/go-f… for release info.
