However, the social media giant, Facebook hasn’t officially enabled this feature for everyone yet. Recently, some of the Redditors have reported a new way to enable the dark mode that is working for them. According to them, now the users can enable the Messenger’s Dark Mode by sending a moon emoji in the chat.
