You can work around this part by going to Gajim menu -> Preferences ->
Advanced and toggling "Use System Keyring" to off. In theory setting up
something like gnome keyring or similar should also work with the
default setting and then save/access passwords that way. I could not
figure it out after hours of trying stuff, but if you toggle that
setting, it will save your passwords without relying on a keyring. I'm
not sure if it's less secure or something in exchange.

P.S. If you need to close Gajim, ctrl-q will do it, or the sway keybind
(default super-shift-q) can close it too. Not a fix for the button being
gone, but maybe it'll help.
