Why does Bolt (Runescape Launcher) request KDE wallet access? (lemmy.world)

Whenever I open the third party Runescape launcher Bolt, it requests KDE wallet access. I don't give it access, and everyone says it's a reliable app. Is it just behaving oddly?

That is certainly possible, but I think the usual flow is for KDE wallet to handle the actual security stuff and the application just gets the credentials

Cool. I know mine stores my SMB credentials for my NAS, and Signal seems to store the key to decrypt the database at rest. When looking in at the values, its usually the bare minimum. I am far from well-read on it though.
