Thunderbird is the only app on my Ubuntu machine which is not dark mode, and that makes it really annoying to look at.

I've installed Dark Reader addon, but it is not much helpful as it only darkens the individual emails, not the emails list and left column.

So I appreciate if you have a better solution.

Alright, I found my answer. Just needed to enable Dark Theme and it makes the whole thunderbird pitch black. Awesome:

To enable dark mode for Thunderbird UI: Tools -> Add-ons and Themes -> Themes -> Enable Dark Theme or System's Theme if it is set as Dark

To enable dark mode for emails content: Tools -> Add-ons and Themes -> Extensions -> Search and install Dark Reader add-on

Checked on Thunderbird 115.9.0 (64-bit), Ubuntu 20.04.
