Get rid of annoying tab tab tab in Facebook Messenger!

A few days or a week ago Facebook Messenger surprised us with a new accessibility bug.
I am not sure if all of you face this problem but lots of users now hear annoying "tab" before every line in every conversation in Messenger.

Despites the fact that in Russia Facebook is prohibited and we do not use it often, I use it almost every day because I want to communicate with my girlfriend from another country and with her family too.
So I wanted to fix this annoying "tab spam" and developed a script for TamperMonkey, which changes couple of HTML-attributes and so gracefully helps you to avoid this bug.

To be honest, "developed" is too loud word for such a thing. It is just bunch of TamperMonkey metadata and a few lines of code with just two important actions: set timer with function, which finds the necessary element and changes its attributes.

BTW, visually interface of Messenger should not change and usual behavior also should stay as it is.

By the following link you can find the installation instruction along with script itself:
