Was truly a great way to handle eye-strain on the desktop, but as of 10/24 it no longer works. Now companions' chat bubbles are in a white background with text in a light gray despite the pages themselves being in dark mode. Would be 5* otherwise, but until this bug is resolved it has to be down.

It works great until today, October 24th. The messages of other people are unreadable as the text bubble is white while the actual text is gray. Please fiix

Does not work as intended as of 10/23/23... dark mode grays out text in chats making it extremely difficult to read Edit: not sure when it was fixed but works as intended now :) Any reviews mentioning white text bubbles have not updated their review to reflect the update.

It works! Thank you so much! It's been a eye-saver since the messenger app doesn't work on my pc!
