Update 2025-07-16: Use either Revanced, NewPipe or Firefox with add-ons. Revanced is my personal pick, due to it being a mod of the official App like Vanced, but better (e.g. it has integration of Sponsor Block, Return YouTube Disklike and more).
I wouldn't recommend Kiwi Browser anymore as it has been discontinued. AFAIK it has been accuired by Microsoft and the extension support has been merged into Edge (Canary). But you'd have to use Edge. Yuck.
So, you love Slack, but you hate applications with large white backgrounds? Why not use Dark Mode!
Unfortunately, Slack does not have a Dark Mode, although it's on their list of possibilities.
But, don't fret - there is a solution! Because the slack native desktop apps are just wrappers around a web app, we can inject our own CSS to customize the application to our liking.
The list of actions listed below was taken mostly from Book Of Zeus with minor modifications and did the job well for Ubuntu version, which was available at that moment (May 2016). This gist was created for internal use and was never meant to be discovered by the web, although Google managed to find and index this page, which was a great surprise for me. Please check the original source for the updated information (links are provided in most of the sections), and read the comments below: they provide more details about the usage experience.
