I think because you account is new you're not showing up in their API

I'm having this problem as well, I have >= 2 karma. Does the keybase snippet need to replace the entire bio?

maxtaco commented 8 years ago

Sometimes firebase is very slow. Check your firebase API page.

My hackernews proof is also failing. https://news.ycombinator.com/user?id=sigmar https://hacker-news.firebaseio.com/v0/user/sigmar

I guess it isn't a keybase bug, as the API page doesn't seem to have my "about" indexed. It has been about 30 hours. Is the API really that slow, or am I missing something?

maxtaco commented 8 years ago

I don't think you are missing anything. That API is really slow and flakey. We tried to scrape HN directory but were black holed. So this is as good as we can do for now. Thanks!

@mrmch when I keybase id mrmch I actually see your HN proof passing. Maybe it fixed itself recently? I've been in touch with support at HN, so it's possible they're making it through a backlog of fixes.

@arnabwahid and @sigmarelax, I've mentioned your usernames to HN support, hopefully they'll get to you shortly.

mrmch commented 8 years ago

@oconnor663 odd, this is how it appears to me on my profile, but keybase id mrmch shows it verified as well.

Does clicking "retry" fix your profile on the website? @maxtaco this is expected, right?

maxtaco commented 8 years ago

Yes. Clearly the client doesn't take the server's word for it, so it's not totally a surprise that there's a confusion between the two. But I wouldn't have fully expected this current situation. @mrmch what happens when you click "retry"? Thanks...
