Ooh, I've not seen wiktor-k/openpgp-proofs before. Too bad it doesn't have more adoption, as I like it's solution to keybase's centralization.

Sadly neither project has an elegant solution to private accounts or services. IRC usernames and Signal are examples of the second. For private accounts, both solutions need specific tool integration, cooperation between services, or more manual interaction by the user. Ideally, a new internet standard would be created and adopted, but I really don't see that happening.

As someone who's put thought into this, I'm wondering what your thoughts on this are?
