FYI, another option for those that don't want to use the fork is to use Chome (or Chomium) to "install" https://messages.google.com as an app. I removed the desktop app from my system and went with this approach.

See https://support.google.com/chrome_webstore/answer/3060053 for more info.

I know not everyone will want to use this option, just putting it out there as an alternative.

@PHLAK Thanks for the reminder! I just installed the Chrome app myself. Works just as well as any of the Electron-based versions.

I am having the same issue, could this be because there seems to be support for reacting to messages(at least from ios users)? It seemed to occur the first time I saw reacting to messages supported.

No, I believe that's just a coincidence because I've had iphone reactions for a few months now and they had been showing up just fine on the desktop app.

It started happening for me with the last update of Android Messages for Desktop. I'm a WIN10 desktop and my phone is a Google Pixel 6P. ADDITIONAL I cannot change to Dark Mode. I could find no version info for the desktop app to include.
