Hmm, I'm looking for a Keybase replacement but one of the main reasons I use Keybase is their native apps that let you mount the cloud storage as a FUSE or FUSE-like (Dokan) native storage device.

This is great for distributing encrypted keychains/configuration files and the such across various platforms (where many apps are not cloud-aware but are happy interacting with the filesystem). So far the "mount" approach seems to have also performed considerably better than syncing-based services (dropbox, G drive, OneDrive etc.) which from time to time have resulted in hard to untangle merge errors.

Peergos looks promising but it also looks to be a web-only service, so not exactly a replacement yet. Would be nice to see an option for local native mounting. Preferably via a native app with a FUSE-like mount point, but I'd also probably be OK with something like WebDAV maybe.

We have a FUSE mount and CLI. For details see: https://github.com/peergos/peergos#fuse-native-folder-mounti...

Ooh, good to know. This should really be advertised a bit more in the website... I want straight to the website and it doesn't mention local mounting in the features at all and no screenshots show anything about local mounts either...
