  • Huh, that is quite odd. Have you set tmux to true colour? If not that may be the issue, though I don't see why it would select those specific colours.

    Incase you haven't, here's the configuration to do so. Place the following in your tmux.conf located at ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf or ~/tmux.conf

    set -g default-terminal "screen-256color"

    you should have to run tmux source ~/.config/tmux/tmux.conf to get it to reload

    You may also have to add the following to your nvim config:
    set termguicolors

    or set TERM to xterm-256color in your shell (example: export TERM="xterm-256color" for bash)

    Though I doubt either are your problem.

    Edit: fixed neovim configuration
