Hi,

Pretty same issue : All the colors of the contacts are grey, and sender color is blue. Using dark mode on W10.

Same issue here for both Win10 and Mac OS 11. All colors lost, and now I can only change the color of myself.

Same on Linux too.

Really hope this is a bug and not intention.

Any response or movement?

I wish this issue was given priority. I find myself confused constantly and I'll be sending messages to the wrong contacts.

Still an issue.

Closing because this seems to be working as intended. The mapping of colors changed between those versions and any previously set of synced colors did not apply so it's now using the default conversation color.

You can change the default conversation color in preferences, or you can change an individual chat's conversation color via the header menu.

Please let me know if I've closed this in error and there is a bug here.
