Skim v1.0.28 — "Hi, my name is" 👋

The one where your mail finally stops introducing itself as a.very.long.address@example.com and starts signing off like a grown-up.

New

Your name on outgoing mail. Skim always had a slot for a display name it just never bothered to fill it. Now it does, per account. And it doesn't ask you: it takes a quiet look at your Sent folder, notices what you actually sign with, and adopts it. Guess once, never again, and never after you've touched the field yourself. (Microsoft OAuth hands the name over at connect time, because it's already right there in the token. Google makes us do it the hard way.) closes #43
Per-mailbox signatures. One plain-text sign-off per account, inserted into the draft the moment you open the composer so what you see is exactly what goes out, and the copy in IMAP Drafts matches. Comes with the proper -- delimiter pre-typed, which also means the AI co-author and the language detector politely skip over your sign-off instead of studying it. closes #42

Nobody churns because they ran out of credits, they churn on the third render

A credit balance turns every click into a purchase decision. That's the whole problem and it has nothing to do with the price being too high.

In a tool with several studios a video render costs roughly 40x an image. One credit unit spanning both means the user is doing arithmetic before every button, and the arithmetic gets worse as the balance drops. The first render feels free. The third one has a price tag on it. People stop long before the balance hits zero, and that shows up in your dashboard as low usage, never as a complaint about cost.
