I am experiencing this same issue, but in reverse: Main window is obeying my dark area selection but the sidebar is light with light text.

I have a similar issue I might say. Turning Dark Mode on will neglect the sidebar and only the message box will be black: http://prntscr.com/m5ttm7

I have the same problem. Chat box is dark and list in white. Temporary solution is using version 2.23.0 with removed silent auto-updater. You have to remove it and compile code manual. I removed updater from release from Github, you can download it from my website if you won't do it yourself :) I compiled only for macOS. Download link (you have to click unicorn to start downloading):

same here, however the Sidebar is a Dark vibrant theme with dark text on it.

I have a similar issue, however I don't even have Dark Mode enabled. The white mode's white is simply different in the side bar.

Edit: spelling.

Just installed version 2.26 - Issue persists.

Yeah I can confirm this is still broken on master. This patch seems to fix it but vibrancy mode still doesn't look right with dark mode enabled;

I confirmed that the issue is still not solve yet. (2.26.0)

I've submitted PR #727 which allows to completely disable vibrancy in case you have any issues with vibrancy or if you just prefer the vibrancy-less look.

@ggrelet, @hieuhuynh93 – the app in your screenshots looks correct, that was the default look since Caprine 2.24.0. After #727 is merged and released you'll be able to go back to pre-2.24 look if you wish (by selecting "View -> Vibrancy -> No Vibrancy")

I'll continue to work on the original issue, I'm currently knee deep in Electron/Chromium code… 😅

Thanks @CvX
The issue has been solved.

This patch seems to fix it but vibrancy mode still doesn't look right with dark mode enabled;

It seems that vibrancy grays out (and is essentially the same gray as vibrancy in Light mode) everything except links at the moment. [EDIT: screenshot is Dark Mode > Full-window Vibrancy]
