TB version 102.2.2 loads slowly, fails to show last email message in group of newly received emails as read, even it's read. I had to use "mark as read" command. How do I get rid of the vertical menu strip on the right side?

(1) speed up loading of TB w/Win 10 Pro; (2) fix for having to use command of mark as read instead of email automatically showing as read after I've scrolled down to and READ IT. I don't need the extra work, I already hate the colors and have a vertical side bar that I can't get rid of on the left side of the TB screen or page. I don't even use the functions in that left side bar. I'd really like to be able to truly customize TB so that I could get rid of the colors, get rid of the sidebar, choose what icons I want (for delete, etc.). I'd have a much cleaner screen, much less clutter.

102.2.2 does have a known performance issue, particularly with large address books. 102.3.0 has a fix.

Is it better with https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/thunderbird/candidates/102.3.0-candidates/build1/ ?

If not, what happens after Help > Troubleshoot mode?
