> Gnome-keyring is a poorly documented, DE specific solution
It hasn't been GNOME-specific for around 5 years.
Quoting https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Libsecret https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Libsecret:
"libsecret is a library for storing and retrieving passwords and other secrets. It communicates with the "Secret Service" using DBus. gnome-keyring and ksecretservice are both implementations of a Secret Service.
libsecret replaces libgnome-keyring."
- EdiX 10y agoI didn't say gnome specific, I said DE specific. There's only two implementations and both of them can only be trusted to work correctly if you run them in combination with their respective desktop environment.
