A lightweight Nightmode theme for Facebook Messenger

⚠️IMPORTANT⚠️
THIS EXTENSION ONLY WORKS ON messenger.com NOT DIRECTLY THROUGH FACEBOOK. Please do not leave inaccurate reviews if you are not using the correct site.

A simple, lightweight Chrome extension that enables a nightmode theme for Facebook's Messenger. This is a small side project that I am working on to provide a long-requested feature for Facebook's Messenger. If you notice any issues or would like to request features, please feel free to do so!

This is exactly what I was after... Doesn't block images; works only on messenger.com by default; looks great; fantastic.

Can't believe how long I've gone without this! This is an incredible find. Everything always needs to have a night mode.
