Github Trends too... it is full of AI/ML/LLM spam.
I wonder how long the hype will last.
I agree with that. Since the Zoom acquisition, developments on Keybase started to fall down, no quality and major updates. Zoom acquired Keybase not for the Keybase as product but only to get the talents of the E2EE and Security Engineers behind Keybase to work with Zoom.
I'll mark this 'keybase.pub being shutdown' as the second downfall of Keybase. Yes, others will say that "its only keybase.pub" but it's the start. Keybase will slowly disappear.
Are there any open source alternatives with quality UX and documentation?

Or tell whether the app you are viewing / downloading is "compatible" with your devices like Google Play Store, right.
Also for instance, when I try to install certain apps on the Early 2011 MacBook Pro that I use, there are some apps that have a block/stop icon on the bottom-right of the app icon itself that indicates that it is either not compatible or would not run the the device (It's good start).
But IMO, What Apple is doing is great and it has something to do with Security and Privacy to some extent. Imagine, there is one app has not been downloaded at all or have few downloads for the course of 12 Months for the past 3 years feels like it's a shady app waiting for a victim.
What a great paywall
Didn't expect it will play a music for me haha, had to pick up my earphones. Anyway it was hilarious.
- Your spotify was anime-slow-dance bad,
On "You listen to these tracks too much:" part, well that is because they are on the top of the playlist. I usually start my Spotify day by just playing the playlist (Liked Songs) so it goes just play the music on whats on top and go down to the first song I fav'ed.
- You are 2% basic. Oh wow The Contes and Crown Jewels! Your taste is so obscure that's so cool I bet you're super interesting..
This one got me :) I really like "The Contes" and "Crown Jewels"
- You're stuck in the early 2010s.
Hmm... Kinda not accurate. Does it know when the track was originally released to make accurate one? Like there was an album on my list that it was originally released on 1998-2004 but was released on Spotify earlier this year 2020.
"fuck marry kill.. fast" was fun but got off took me a while to figure it out, I quickly clicked "fuck" and "marry" on SCANDAL (why not right? haha) and thought the A.I. is dead, later I figured out that I need to choose on others too.
Sad to say but I am still using Keybase. The only part that keeps me on using Keybase is because I love the KBFS (File Storage), Chat, and the Keybase.pub (Static Hosting HTML and Markdown) sample: https://coffeekitkat.keybase.pub/blog/env-vars-in-vue
The moment of Zoom acquisition, I barely used Keybase and started to research about alternatives, but I haven't found one that can match or have better quality than Keybase if ever I've found something good I might say goodbye to Keybase.
You can still use the platform if you find it really useful specially the Chat feature of it, but always be cautious. I personally have doubts and trust issues towards Zoom.
Keybase is great, but a full alternative is needed.

I use Pecil(https://pencil.evolus.vn/) to create ui/ux feature mock-ups and app wireframe, it might not be powerful as SketchApp but it gets the job done. Some FOSS linux design tools are simple and easy but can be worse or a problem for larger teams because someone needs to manage who can access the designs and how to deal with collaboration. I believe this is what SAAS design tools are solving, they focus to ease the collaboration, access management and to version control process of designing.
Tbh, I struggle on using GIMP, Photoshop is easy to use.
Does draw.io count ?
