Ask HN: Why most CLIs are not using keyring?

This is bit of a rant on software usability and security. CLIs like kubectl/awscli/<add your critical tool here> don't use keyring to store credentials, instead using plain text files. Besides requiring me to retype passwords over and over.Any good reason to avoid keyring? Please enlighten meFYI: I've learned today that poetry (the python thing) uses keyring for credentials. Good job!

I really appreciate the work put on other plugins with similar goals, such as https://github.com/DisposaBoy/GoSublime, but sublime-go seems much simpler to use and has all the basic features for a reasonable experience with Go & Sublime Text.

Thanks to Amir Abushareb, who maintains it.

This articles reminds me of Parkinson's Law: "work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parkinson's_law
