Description

Keybase MacOS X Finder integration does not work after update to MacOS X 13 Verntura:

> 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.

Keybase version: Version 6.0.1-20220609162338+0fc9feea3d (6.0.1-20220609162338+0fc9feea3d)
