Description
I've hit issues on and off where I couldn't download files in Chrome or attach documents to email via browing my local files in Outlook Online, and I finally tracked down the issue when 'df' wouldn't run either.
I did an 'strace df' and it was hanging at:
newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/keybase",
I killed the keybase process and everything started working fine.
I'm not sure I can give much more diagnostic info around the issue, but is there a way to disable it in keybase vs doing a 'rm -f /usr/bin/keybase-redirector' to make things work right?

Research direction
Start by reproducing the hang around `newfstatat(AT_FDCWD, "/keybase"` with `df` on Ubuntu 22.04 with ZFS, then inspect how `/usr/bin/keybase-redirector` is installed and controlled. Done means identifying a supported way to disable the redirector without removing the binary and confirming that file access and `df` no longer hang.
