Care to elaborate? Just curious...

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22997245 and requiring gnome-keyring on Linux are issues for me.

Does it actually require GNOME Keyring or does it just use libsecret? Because libsecret is dope and has been nothing but a joy to work with.

I've seen some examples of GNOME keyring being required because it implements the freedesktop secrets standard (which I admit to knowing nothing of) where other secret managers do not. Presumably meaning there us no common interface, so we just pick the one that implements the spec. One example:

https://github.com/pithos/pithos/issues/559

It's (dependency on gnome-keyring) been fixed in the latest release [1].

Assuming GNOME shell is Linux users' default desktop environment is very wrong.

However, providing desktop GUI app in AppImage format is great.

Those looks like differences and matters of preference not anything "wrong" about it.

Well, there are reasons why Keybase changed from key-centric to identity-centric back in 2015: https://keybase.io/blog/keybase-new-key-model
