If you put bold text in, for example, Colorize for Ruby, you may see that in a colourscheme that has different colours from 0F and upper, the colour gets automatically bright, I've seen this in Dracula and Gruvbox

This issue: #17 is related to this.

And I'm seconding the desire to be able to be able to see bold as bold not bright.
Besides this being a choice in almost all terminals, my personal use case is using termux on an eink device where the number of displayable shades of gray is limited and having bold would be enormously helpful.

I think it should be a configurable option of the termux.

Please, yes, make this an option. The meaning of the bold attribute has been confused and changed a lot over the years (not in termux, specifically, but in the history of ANSI-capable terminals). I believe that always doing or always not doing this breaks color schemes/bold usage for half of the termux users.
