Apple's custom backgrounds on messages is incredibly dumb

Apparently my family has recently discovered that you can now customize the backgrounds of messages. I can't believe how dumb this feature is.

Why would anyone think it's a good idea for my screen to start looking different because of someone else's setting choice? I have my phone set on light mode for a reason. I need the Apple designers to just take a few years off or something.

If you want to disable this on your end you can. Settings > Apps > Messages > and then toggle conversation backgrounds off. This should be the default setting.
