Theming Slack for OSX

So, you love Slack, but you hate applications with large white backgrounds? Why not use Dark Mode! 🕶️

Unfortunately, Slack does not have a Dark Mode, although it's on their list of possibilities.

But, don't fret - there is a solution! Because the slack native desktop apps are just wrappers around a web app, we can inject our own CSS to customize the application to our liking.

(I take no credit for this exploit, graciously found via @DrewML https://gist.github.com/DrewML/0acd2e389492e7d9d6be63386d75dd99 and suggestions by @bradens, @jouni, @gkostov and others).
