Description

I am not sure if there is something more that I need to do to get my new MacBook Pro after restoring from a time machine backup. It seems like Keybase recognized the new computer with as the same device as my previous computer. However, exploding messages do not seem to work with error message: "This exploding message is not available to you. cloned devices so not support exploding messages"

my log id: 00043c49d3b4fa569c29c91c
