Description
Since the latest update of Keybase, I have issues on my work laptop running Pop!_OS 21.10, which I today found out to be https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nautilus/+bug/1951075
Open and 'Save as...' dialogs would not open, freezing the application they belong too and even freezing gnome-shell. Same with trying to open the Nautilus file manager. Errors are detailed in the bug report above.
Somehow the Keybase virtual mounts give issues, even on clean boot. Quitting Keybase immediately resolves the problems.

Research direction
Start with the linked Launchpad report and reproduce the behavior on Pop!_OS 21.10 with Keybase running, focusing on Nautilus, file dialogs, and GNOME Shell. Done means Open and Save As dialogs and Nautilus no longer freeze while Keybase virtual mounts are active.
