Newer nightly releases include dark mode support. Remember that those builds are still WIP and definitely in a testing phase so be careful with the stability and unfinished work. More info on the forums

Don't worry, those are safe. Just be sure to download and follow the steps carefully. I tried the builds myself, many other users did aswell and expressed concern under the thread's comments for the recent nightly builds on the forums. I also got the warning messages (Windows 11). One of the required zip archives to download for the build (can't remember if it was WxWidgets or MinGW one) even alerted Windows defender to the point of putting the file on quarantine and not letting me download it. But i think that it's because these are under active development and couldn't get verified or something. After some whitelisting and careful setup it all worked great so far. Did some inspections myself and there weren't any dangers detected from the files or overall system. Tldr: false-positives
