Can I remove the tags colors from the threads pane

Right now, the messages in my threads pane show up in colors associated with their tags. This isn't a functionality I need and it makes it difficult for me to read a lot of the messages. I just want messages to show up in a single color -- black (or white on black would be great, but I don't know how to set a dark mode if one exists). I suppose even better would be the ability to have certain tags affect color and other not.

Any easy way of doing any of this?

My suggestion may be simple: I suggest changing the colors so that they don't create this visual challenge for you.

Could you please post a screenshot of what you're requesting?

In this image, all the messages shown in the threads pane are tagged with a tag which is light orange, so all of the messages show up as light orange which is difficult to read. I don't need the messages to reflect their tags at all. I would like them to all show up in the default text color (which, in this case, is black)

(The image uploaded okay but doesn't show in the preview -- is that normal?)

Thank you! I didn't know that I could change the tag colors but after your reply, I found the setting and fixed it so my tags are black. Thanks again.
