Rated 4 out of 5 stars
I am seeing the same issue in TB 91.1.1 as Tony on Sept. 21, 2021 https://addons.thunderbird.net/en-GB/thunderbird/addon/gmail-conversation-view/reviews/1167942/
I selectively disabled the display affecting add-ons until i had narrowed it down to this one. This is with version 3.2.34.
Update:
Disabling all add-on then first re-enabling this one followed by the rest has it working again.

breaks dark reader, boo white background-ed emails.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.2.33).Hi, unfortunately the breakage with respect to dark reader is a combination of how the add-on works and some issues in Thunderbird. There is some significant work to fix this and we've been prioritising improving the maintainability of the add-on to keep the general add-on working. Hopefully we can look at this soon. The work is tracked here:
https://github.com/thunderbird-conversations/thunderbird-conversations/issues/1609
General dark mode support is also desired, again delayed due to prioritising other areas, and we are open to help if anyone wants to help with that:

ótimo, a melhor opção que tem!

Very handy plugin, offering functionality which should be implemented in Thunderbird natively. I really LOVE the conversation views in Google's Gmail interface and it is good it is starting to appear in other clients, too. HOWEVER, I really need the ability to view the newest messages in a conversation on top.....

Excellent plugin! I am looking forward for more updates on it. It would be great if it had the option to indent messages like an hierarchy. But even without this yet...it already helps a lot!

Really usefull extention!
I will also appreciate if it will be available a "change conversation sort order" (for example I prefer the last at the top of the page).

Great improvement to the TB. I think it still needs some features or fixes (like sorting order, selecting folders to search in), but it's one of the best extensions I use.

Very Good!!!
Is it possible to change conversation sort order in message panel? THX

Good idea and implementation overall that helps with keeping an overview of message threads / conversations. Though I noticed a couple of issues that may be a showstopper or at least a drawback for many users (myself included):
1. Does not work properly with dark themes. Backgrounds of messages (in read mode) are always set to white by default.
2. Font sizes in the message pane are fixed by default and cannot be altered -> REALLY bad thing for people with visual impairments who want to zoom in on messages to magnify font display.
3. Messages by default open in a fixed-sized window that gets aligned to the left of the screen and extends across the entire height of the screen. Why?
4. Attachments always get displayed at the end of a message which can mean a lot of additional scrolling effort.
Neither of these behaviors can be adapted anywhere in the settings, at least not that I would see it. I feel this is quite restricting in relation to the “core” benefit of having messages threaded into conversations.
Instead of “forcing” users into the above restrictions, the extension should focus on its core value added which is grouping messages by conversation – and not “fiddle around” with diverse default layout and display options – at least not without enabling users to turn these off again.

must-have addon

Really great that this addon exists. Boost for productivity. Thank you

how good would it be if you can simply show latest conversation at the top!
right now it's at the bottom and I'll have to scroll to the bottom to see latest

Very nice. Only i forgot what to press to reset settings. Can you write it in FAQ or in description?
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.2.11).Rated 1 out of 5 stars
Changed my configuration in a way I never agreed to.
Also fast reply doesn't work making this extension useless.
Conversations shows you a setup screen where you agreed for it to make changes - it makes some by default, but you can review the changes as well. The description also gives hints as to what to do to revert things you might not like.
As also stated in the description, quick reply is not currently working, but is being re-developed. Unfortunately changes in Thunderbird required extensive rework that has not been quick and easy to do alongside the other changes that are required to keep the rest of the add-on working.

What I had hoped is that conversations would also be visible in Folder Pane Columns.

Very useful add-on. Makes conversations look a lot cleaner and easier to work with. I've been using it for a while now and find it very useful.
A thunderbird feature that I wouldn't want to miss anymore.
Thanks to the Developer! :)

It was nice using this extension!
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.2.10).Rated 2 out of 5 stars
It changed the complete looks of my Thunderbird in a way I don't like (which is OK) - and FAILED setting it back to the original state when being uninstalled (which I find EVIL).
I must say: DO NOT TRY THIS IF YOU ARE NOT SURE YOU WANT IT !
Because it will simply overwrite some settings you have done!
EDIT: I change to 2 stars instead of 1 because I got a reply from a developer to my critique. Thank you very much for that.
In reply to the reply: Yes, I agree it is not a big deal to change the settings manually to the former state. But I expect any addon I install to leave as little a trace as possible once I decide to uninstall it (MUST HAVE requirement).
Hi, we're sorry you're unhappy with the experience.
The add-on gives you an introduction page where you would have chosen to apply changes. There's a review option on that page where you can decide not to change various items.
Some of that is not as clear as it could be and we'll be improving that soon.
Also both the add-on homepage and the FAQ reference the fact that if you don't like the alternate folder layout, then you can change it back by using "View > Folders > All".
The uninstall is currently broken because of changes in Thunderbird, and we're also working to improve those to work better.

Nearly perfect. Would it be possible to decouple from the addon the very useful features but underlated to conversations? The PDF viewer is a feature unique in this addon, not available elsewhere, afaik. Having used the addon, today i would like stop using it but to keep using the previewer.
This review is for a previous version of the add-on (3.2.6).To create your own collections, you must have a Mozilla Add-ons account.
