Mine for text editors (vscode, zenburn is Vim theme I think)
ZenBurn,
Visual Studio default dark theme (not great, not terrible),
Solarized light (dark is fugly, feels like underwater with blue and green having low contrast) but this is one of the best light themes IMHO - not so yellow as gruvbox,
Nord,
Ariake Dark for programming (blueish-purplish)
Midnight spruce pine
minimalGreen (for dark environment)
I agree with most of your choices, various OneDark/Dracula/Darkula themes are good, I just hate solarized dark.
Fonts: JetBrains Mono, JuliaMono, InputMono at some sizes (it's sort of commercial and it sometimes has bad hinting).

Can somebody tell me
[1] What's the thing DT uses that places Pacman -pictures- in the terminal, then that batman like -logo-?
[2] What's the name of 'whatever-it's-called' that says at the bottom of the terminal how many seconds it took, for example: - - took 6s > -
[3] Also it's probably not bash-autocomplete, but when DT types terminal assumes what he's going to type and shows in slightly dimmer letters possible word?
Does anybody know?

Solarized Light looks decent enough. I've tested lots of light color themes and it's quite hard to find one that looks good in terminal and vim without sacrificing readability when viewing code in vim. I personally use a script that recompiles st with a different colorscheme and sed to replace my colorscheme in my vim config depending on if I want a light or dark theme. Dark is easy as there's so many good ones, light is more of a struggle.

I was very interested into color schemes like Nord and Gruvbox and Dracula but those were Gtk themes because I dont have enough knowledge to configure WM the way I want them to be. So I use Pop shell but the non uniformity puts it off because you use many many diff websites and most of them dont support anything so.

DT really has like 9 favorite color schemes? Boy you need a life maybe one SO, some kids or a dog or maybe another hobby. I'm finding myself watching you less and less. I'm definetely not watching this. It's a shame I really like your stance on free and open source software!

I can see the appeal of solarized dark, but for me, the text colors are just too dark compared to the background, and I'm not crazy about the background being outright blue rather than black (or very close to black). For me, Doom One is the color scheme for me.

well i use transparency to be able to see my wallpaper from time to time, you know, and then i use pywal to theme my terminals and window manager which leaves me with a few hundred themes instead of those 9 nice looking but to be honest kinda boring themes

I loved solarized dark and light for one reason. I used to have my monitors behind a window. During daytime, when the sun was bright, I used the light one and during the night i swinch it to the dark. Should have made a script i guess

Colour schemes can seem superficial, but as a colourblind person, it's actually essential! My worst experience was having to use a strange SAS install for work which didn't have any options for syntax colour.

Hey DT try out everforest theme .. it's one of the best I have seen .. easy on the eye and I use it daily for coding in nvim
