### Runtime Dependencies
-Fractal doesn't store your **password** but uses [Secret
Service](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/secret-storage-spec/)
+Fractal doesn't store your **password** but uses
+[Secret Service](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/secret-storage-spec/)
to store your **access token** and **passphrase** used to encrypt the local cache.
Therefore, you need to have software providing that service on your system.
-If you're using GNOME this should just work. If you are using a different desktop environment or are facing
issues, make sure you have `xdg-desktop-portal` installed and a [Secret
Service](https://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Specifications/secret-storage-spec/) provider, for example
`gnome-keyring` or KeepassXC ([setup guide](https://avaldes.co/2020/01/28/secret-service-keepassxc.html)).
