Does keybase still upload the private PGP key to the keybase server by default? https://github.com/keybase/keybase-issues/issues/160

We're trying to move away from PGP to a per-device key model (keys never leave the client devices): https://keybase.io/blog/keybase-new-key-model

You did not answer my question, but I guess it does not matter with the new strategy. Looks like embrace-extend-extinguish to me – has it always been a goal of Keybase to replace PGP with something keybase-specific or did something change?
