Description

Related: #3301

Opened Chris's folder on first run for testing, now I can't remove it. He also keeps popping up, as mentioned in the related issue, and apparently the only fix for that is to track him.

Deleting /keybase/public/chris does nothing, as it just reappears again.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure described for /keybase/public/chris and read related issue #3301 for context about the folder reappearing and Chris's repeated appearance. Done means the public folder can be deleted after viewing it and does not reappear unexpectedly.
