Jonathan Pineault (ID: 000000327f2080fd) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 05/16/2024 May 16th 2024 - EDIT The extension stopped working preperly again, everything is white! Hopefully it gets fixed soon. Jan 12th 2024 - EDIT The extension stopped working properly today, the background of conversations is bright white unfortunately. Meta is probably messing with the rendering of conversations... I hope it gets fixed well! (I just can't understand why a dark mode is not proposed by Facebook Messenger itself!) Oct 30th 2023 - EDIT The extension was fixed!!! Thanks for helping my eyes ;) Oct 24th 2023 This extension was good until few days ago... Now the messages I receive are white and (almost) unreadable! Maybe it's becacuse of a Google Chrome update???

Daniel Espiritu (ID: 000000b779292d6d) Voted 1 ★ - Updated 03/20/2024 It`s broken now. March 20, 2024. Incoming chat message has white background. It`s been great so far. Hope they fix it soon.

István Péter Járay (ID: 0000008d9bf7af37) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 01/31/2024 Works perfect usually. When facebook makes a change, they also have to update the script. It's not their fault but I want to report one such newly-emerged bug: The icons next to chat messages (more, reply, respond) are not appearing, but upon hovering over, their area is highlighted and the text-modal shows the related text. Nothing that breaks functionality, but creates nuissance. Otherwise, I adore this plugin. They'll soon get this fixed too as usual.
