First time reading about keybase, how much do you trust them? I'm always weary of people giving out "free" stuff, in this case, stellar lummens.

Will there doesn't seem to be a catch. You don't have to keep them in their wallet for any given time. Just seems like a promotion to get people holding our using them

Just had a look at their site, and I need to download something. Is it a plug that does the clever screening stuff or an app that sits in front of all the apps? Or something totally different?

There's mobile and desktop apps that provide the chat function. I think you can generate the proofs through the browser too. It can be a bit technical. I got on there years ago as I was interested in encryption.

ok, thanks!

Do you only use Keybase on your phone or do you use it on your PC as well? I noticed the other day that the app running on my PC was taking up a huge amount of system resources. It doesn't seem like that should be the case, so I was a little surprised.

I have it on both, but haven't noticed that. Could put have been encrypting files to sync to their server?

Yeah, I am not sure. I wan't too worried about it, but I was experiencing some goofy behavior with my PC and it just surprised me to see it so high in the list.
