Added

  • Drag and drop into the chat: drop images, videos or any files anywhere
    on the conversation — a "Drop to send" overlay appears, and the files are
    attached to the message being written. In the desktop app, dropped files
    go through the unbounded disk path (up to 2 GiB), like the attach button.
    The previous composer-only drop zone silently did nothing in the packaged
    app (the webview intercepts OS file drags) — now handled natively.
  • Built-in video player: video attachments (up to 8 MiB) play directly
    in the thread — download progress, then a standard player, with a Retry
    button if the sender is unreachable. Larger videos keep the downloadable
    file card.
  • Dedicated Updates tab: the update section moved out of Settings →
    System into its own Settings → Updates tab.
Install notes (macOS "damaged" warning, Windows SmartScreen)

macOS — the app is not damaged: it is not notarized by Apple (that requires a paid developer certificate), and macOS reports quarantined, non-notarized apps as "damaged" on Apple Silicon. Fix it once, after dragging Accord into Applications:

xattr -cr /Applications/Accord.app

Windows — the installer is not code-signed: click More info → Run anyway.
