Description
This morning I upgraded my MacBook Pro to Catalina. When restarting, I got a popup with the following message:
```Keybase Install Error
We were unable to load KBFS (Fuse kext). This may be due to a limitation in MacOS where there aren't any device slots available. Device slots can be taken up by apps such as VMWare, VirtualBox, anti-virus programs, VPN programs and Intel HAXM.
```

When I launch Keybase and enable Keybase in Finder, it keeps on loading and nothing is happening. I would like to get the Keybase filesystem to work again.

Research direction
Start with the supplied log id bb60401a3901223e8c72421c and the reported Catalina startup message about the KBFS Fuse kext. Investigate the never-ending Finder loading state with Keybase Filesystem enabled; done when KBFS loads successfully after restart and Finder access works again.
