In my experience most inliners I converse with are also keybase users
and this is only speculation but I guess they find it convenient to 
copy-paste clear/encrypted text into their browsers and keybase instead
of installing anything locally to manage PGP. The only other inline
contact I can think of on top of my head uses some kind of 
gmail-firefox-pgp-plugin(?) and only accepts inline encryption.  

The state of things in this regard is a bit... sad and keybase popping
up on the scene doesn't seem to speed up the demise of inline PGP
messages. 

Sorry for OT.
