Description
Keybase GUI Version: 1.0.33-20171003193446+d9ceb86ac
I have removed keybase from the login items in preferences and keybase does not honour the setting change. Now keybase is bugging me to update whenever my computer boots.
It would be less egregious if keybase didn't use 200mb of ram, 5 processes and 88 threads to merely have a visible menu icon
