What's so special about keybase? I feel like Signal is current solution to go to if you just need easy e2ee (espexially because of its big userbase). Otherwise it's Matrix for me as it offers "the future of messaging" (well, you wish)

Keybase does way more than just the messaging. Fundamentally it's a really cool solution to the digital identity problem. With that solved, they built a lot of useful tools around those identities, ranging from secure messaging to secure file storage and git hosting.

I should have said this is my comment above, but keybase had a CLI from the start that would do anything the UI would. It would make it usable on a headless machine, and was so easy to script. With the keybase CLI you could write a simple chat bot in a few lines of bash. I had a few "reminder" bots that were just lines in a crontab. Those were the killer features for me.
