      Ah shit, that sucks, sorry to hear.

      Sorry on that command if you’re using lua to configure the correct setting should be

      vim.opt.termguicolors = true
      

      Or in your init.vim set termguicolors should work too. Apologies for messing up that last comment

      If you’re still up to trying some stuff, last thing I can think of is tmux deciding not to take the setting. Forcing tmux to use true color may help with set -ag terminal-overrides ",$TERM:Tc" or launching with tmux -2 may help, you’ll have to source the tmux config again of course. Also confirming that your terminal supports true color

          Yeah thought you may have done so, still good to check. Hope the best for you but I can’t think of anything else myself, unless you have a background set in tmux and a transparent background in neovim

          For others who may help, what terminal are you using? What is is the output of echo $TERM?

            Foot. It says foot. When I’m in tmux it says tmux-256color

              Try this in tmux.conf:

              set-option -ga terminal-overrides ",foot:Tc"
              

              These overrides apply to the TERM you are using outside of tmux (where this is running).

              Yeah that’s the expected output. I’d see if alacritty or kitty works as expected to rule out foot being the issue, then manually setting term=xterm-256color in your foot.ini if it does work in either

              This must be incredibly frustrating

      vim or neovim? what terminal emulator are you using? post your nvim init.lua file. try putting both of these in tmux.conf:

      set -g default-terminal “xterm-256color”

      set-option -ga terminal-overrides “,xterm-256color:Tc”

      This is for alacritty terminal emulator + tmux + neovim but may help put you on the right track with whatever te u might be using:
