I guess you're referring to theme.toml in the examples folder. Recently, I made some changes to the theme structure, so you can look into this instead.

Default settings give me this look

The default theme shouldn't give such a look. Can you try running the app using different terminal (e.g kitty, iterm2) instead of the default terminal of MacOS? My initial guess is that it is because colors are not well supported by your terminal.

Problem solved by switching off ANSI colors but everything turned black/white now

Related: https://github.com/aome510/spotify-player/issues/97. I think it will get better with the new upcoming release, in which I switched to use terminal default colors instead of defining custom themes.

You can try the latest build of master branch. In the meantime, I'll close this issue for now. Feel free to reopen if encountering related issues.
