BloomMD updates
Linux server profiles now store credentials securely
BloomMD uses the system Secret Service on Linux so server profiles can be reused safely after a restart.
A server profile is only useful if it is still available the next time the app starts — without putting the personal access token in an ordinary settings file. BloomMD now supports the standard Secret Service on Linux.
The profile stays, the token stays protected
Profile metadata is stored locally, while the token itself is kept in the system keyring. BloomMD can offer profiles again after a restart without writing secrets to JSON files, command-line arguments or logs.
If the Secret Service is missing or locked, the app shows concrete Linux-specific guidance. The implementation is not tied to GNOME Keyring; it uses the standard org.freedesktop.secrets interface.
