Region/selection background color is unlike the default region highligh in the README

[fnune]

Hello there and thanks a lot for the awesome colorscheme!

In Emacs, I'm getting region selections highlighted like this:

I've tried configuring it "back" to default with (setq nord-region-highlight "default"), which is a bit silly, but I keep getting the pink selection highlight.

Why might this be? I want it to look like in the README:

Environment:

echo $TERM
screen-256color

emacs --version
GNU Emacs 26.1

The terminal emulator is Termite.
The terminal theme is Nord as well.

This also appears to be an issue for me.

Environment

> echo $TERM
screen-256color

> echo $COLORTERM
truecolor

> tput colors
256

> emacs --version
GNU Emacs 26.1

Terminal Emulator: iTerm2, Build 3.2.0
Terminal Theme: Nord

Edit

Testing the color palette via list-color-display in GUI Emacs and terminal Emacs shows the the color palette is more extensive in the former. I've tried running TERM=xterm-24bit emacs -nw but the colors are quite wrong.

This PR seems related?

Same observed here. Environment:

$ echo $TERM
screen-256color

$ emacs --version
GNU Emacs 25.2.2                                                        

$ tput colors
256

$ echo $COLORTERM
truecolor

I have also notices that nord-comment-brightness have no effect, meaning the comment brightness never change. Nord theme is used in gnome-terminal, tmux and emacs.

Thank you for your patience! 🙏🏼
It's been a while since I had free time to focus more on Nord, and my open source projects in general, and invest time in this issue due to work-life balance. Please keep in mind that maintainers must maintain (pun intended 😁) balance for their open source work and life to avoid burnouts so this gap in time has nothing to do with you or your contribution.

I recently published the first "Northern Post — The state and roadmap of Nord" announcement which includes all details about the plans and future of the Nord project, including the goal of catching up with the backlog. This issue is part of the backlog and therefore I want to triage and process it to get one step closer to a "clean state". Read the announcement about reaching the "clean" contribution triage state in Nord's discussions for more details about the goal.

Therefore it has been added for triage in the central and single-source-of-truth project board that is also described in more detail in the roadmap announcement.
