Keybase

What do you like best?

Keybase is not a single app, it is a suite of multiple apps and these apps are very likeable:

Chat application: If you are a slack user and love the of inter company communication, Keybase runs a natively more secure Slack-esq chat app. I like the fact that one does not have a limited search history. The best part about keybase is that is is just like slack, but its free and more secure.

Encrypted Git: Git is a developer's best friend, but trusting a platform like Github does not guarantee privacy and security for the source code, but Keybase's Git helps store code safely.

Groups: Groups can be effectively leveraged to improve intra company communication, Keybase lets you create unlimited groups that let you post code snippets to memes.

Secure file and code storage: If you're a fan of dropbox, Keybase is a more secure version of dropbox without the hefty price tag.

Focus on privacy and security: Keybase is a security first focussed app. It lets even laypeople encrypt their files and sign messages to ensure privacy and integrity.

Support for sending money: This does not let you send money like Indian rupees, United states dollars or the euro, but Keybase lets you send Stella lumens, which is fungible and can be used as money, the icing on the cake is Keybase gives away free stellar lumens to its uses. Yes you read it right, they give users free money, which is a good incentive to use keybase.

What do you dislike?

The learning curve for non technical users can be a bit too steep. This app can be overwhelming for people that do not understand PGP, encryption or digital signatures.
