Hey everyone, thanks all for chiming in. We've made some changes to the private key export functionality: You now have control over the format your private key will be exported in. We support the OpenSSH format, PKCS#8, and PKCS#1 (if you originally imported the key in PKCS#1 format). This is available in the latest beta release and will be present in the next stable release as well.

We'd love to hear if this resolves the incompatibility issues you ran into. Apologies for the inconvenience this has caused.
