@Gargron Am I the only person that sees people posting these and just goes "Must be them then" without actually verifying them?

I get as far as "BEGIN SIGNED MESSAGE" before glazing over and thinking "Yeah, seems legit"

@troubleMoney Haha. Well, it's there for the record.

@Gargron I even have a keybase account, I really should bother checking these things occasionally, but eh... effort

@troubleMoney @Gargron I light up seing BEGIN then read KEYBASE and realize that neither I nor any of my friends saw his ID. I don't also fully trust saltpack as a proven method.

@mulander @troubleMoney I could do PGP with the same key but I don't know if it would fit into 500 chars.

@Gargron @troubleMoney it would not, but you can make a specific toot and sign a message with a permalink to it.

Though on a serious note don't bother. What you did is OK and more than necessary for 90% people. It's definitely better than no verification at all.

I was making a small joke stab. I'm also on keybase: https://keybase.io/mulander

@mulander @Gargron Yeah, that's a point, keybase isn't a replacement for good old fashioned key signing parties but it's certainly better than nothing

@troubleMoney @Gargron agreed.
