Description
Keybase fails "starting up" on MacOS 10.5.2 on aarch64 ("Apple silicon" M1)
The gui shows only "Starting up keybase."
There was a message to send logs, but the keybase executable is not available on my path. I managed to find it under /Applications/Keybase.app/… somewhere and send logs
my log id: 1a6bdd032835b33a8d0c981c
Keybase GUI Version: 5.8.0-20210920184218+ac2177aec7

Research direction
Start with the reported Keybase GUI version, macOS 10.5.2 on aarch64, and log ID 1a6bdd032835b33a8d0c981c. Locate the Keybase executable under /Applications/Keybase.app and investigate why the GUI remains at “Starting up keybase”; done means Keybase starts normally on Apple silicon.
