After last commits I cannot save settings if I enable dynamic auth.
I get the following message, although I'm sure that I enter the correct password:
Incorrect password, could not save settings to the server

I have been doing a lot of refactoring lately, it's likely I broke this. Thanks for the report, I will dig into it and get it fixed!

Yes, now the settings are saved.
Tell me please, why do I need to enter a password to save the settings?

Settings saved between logins are encrypted at rest. The encryption key is derived from your Cypht password. Because of this we cannot access a user's settings, or save them, without that password. Because that password is not saved anywhere on the server, you have to re-enter it to save your settings.
