linksRow. This is a minor naming inconsistency that could cause confusion for future contributors.

The original text included "Privacy permissions can only be revoked in System Settings → Privacy & Security." On macOS, dragging an app to the Trash does not automatically revoke permissions like Accessibility, Input Monitoring, or Full Disk Access. Without this note, users who want a clean uninstall won't know those grants persist until they find them manually. Consider keeping at least a short mention, e.g. "Privacy permissions granted in System Settings are not removed automatically."

Summary
Trim the Support section copy in the About pane to two short sentences, relabel the Support button to "Support Cotabby" (heart icon already present), rename the "Links" section to "Resources", and shorten the Uninstall text. Brings the pane in line with the latest design mockup.
Validation

None.
Risk / rollout notes
Copy and label changes only; no behavior change.
Greptile Summary
This PR tightens the copy in the About pane: the Support section blurb is condensed to two shorter sentences, the "Links" section is relabeled "Resources", the support button gains the "Cotabby" suffix, and the uninstall instructions are shortened. No logic or behavior changes are introduced.
linksRowview builder retains its old name despite the section being renamed "Resources", creating a minor naming inconsistency.Confidence Score: 4/5
Safe to merge — all changes are pure UI copy with no logic, data, or behavior impact.
The change is entirely copy and label edits in a single SwiftUI view. The only notable omission is the removal of the macOS privacy-permissions reminder from the uninstall instructions, which could leave users unaware that grants like Accessibility or Input Monitoring persist after the app is deleted. The
linksRownaming mismatch after the "Resources" rename is a minor readability concern for future contributors.Cotabby/UI/Settings/Panes/AboutPaneView.swift — specifically the uninstall text block and the
