+                    <p>
+                        We've revamped our payments system for Polar Premium and
+                        the biggest change is that we're now accepting payments
+                        via Stripe.
+                    </p>
+
+                    <p>
+                        We've manually migrated accounts from Open Collective and
+                        your payments will still process there while you have a
+                        regular premium account.  If you have any issues please
+                        feel free to contact <b>[email protected]</b>.
+                    </p>
+
+                    <p>
+                        We're going to be working to bring on a few more premium
+                        features in the next couple weeks.  These include:
+
+
+                    </p>
+
+                    <ul>
+                        <li>Watch directories that can automatically import documents into Polar.</li>
+                        <li>Markdown support</li>
+                        <li>Dark mode</li>
+                    </ul>
+
+                    <p>
+                        We're not 100% certain of the timeline on these features
+                        as some of them are a bit difficult to implement.
+                    </p>
+
+                    <p>
+                        We're also working on a few major changes that are taking
+                        a bit longer - mostly because they're very technically
+                        complicated.  These aren't available yet but are 50-80%
+                        complete.
+                    </p>
+
+                    <p>
+                        This includes:
+                    </p>
+
+                    <ul>
+                        <li>Folder view that extends our tagging system with a full hierarchy.</li>
+                        <li>Tabbed browsing for the desktop / Electron version of Polar</li>
+                        <li>ePub support</li>
+                    </ul>
+
+                    <p>
+                        If you'd like to see these features sooner rather than
+                        later the best way you can help (besides a pull request)
+                        is to upgrade to <a href="https://getpolarized.io/pricing.html">
+                        Polar Premium</a>.
+                    </p>
+
+                    <b>Changes in 1.19.8 Include:</b>
+
+                    <ul>
+                        <li>New payment system for Polar premium based on Stripe.</li>
+                        <li>Fixed bug when dragging area highlights.</li>
+                        <li>Fixed regression in the webapp where PHZ files couldn't be loaded.</li>
