Thanks for bringing this up. I’d probably want to stick with the current defaults, but I think it wouldn’t harm to add another colour theme such as |

Hello!
It would be great to get a mode/setting to get all output to use only the basic ANSI colour escapes i.e. the first section shown here: https://talyian.github.io/ansicolors/
I saw the option to use a light theme exists, which can help with some terminal configurations, but using combinations of the 8 basic colours + bold/dim/etc modifiers means the output will match the colour theme of the whole terminal on almost every terminal emulator.
This helps with both ✨ aesthetics ✨ (I like to have a pretty terminal 🎨) and also readability, as with my present terminal theme, not all of the colours used in either the built-in dark or light theme are 100% readable.
I'd almost say there's an argument to be made that sticking to the base 16 colours should be the default and more advanced light and dark themes should be explicitly enabled using the config, but I would also be completely happy keeping things as-is with a config option to use the basic colours.
Thank you :)
