Subject: [PATCH] About dialog: adjust loading text and style
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Strip the 🔄 emoji from the localized loading string to avoid rendering issues and use the cleaned text for the QLabel. Tweak the label styling by changing the color from #cccccc to #888888 and removing the italic font-style for a more consistent appearance.
