pl Dzięki temu roszerzeniu nie oślepłem podczas korzystania z witryny internetowej messenger na komputerze stacjonarnym. Chciałbym serdecznie podziękować twórcy za wynalezienie tego cuda.

en EDIT: The "react", "Reply", and "more" buttons seem to have more contrast now! I have zero complaints. FIVE STARS! Wonderful extension! I would like to mention that recently the "react", "reply", and "more" options are difficult to see lately. I assume FB changed something, but if that could be resolved I'd be a very happy camper.

en Such an improvement, 5/5 stars! Only feedback is that the chat icon is too dark to see in this mode, but you can still clearly see the word "chat" so it's not too bad

en It's amazing and works great on Messenger.com per 19/05/2024 - should've just been included in Messenger in the first place.
