To reproduce, setup your config file colors so that messages should not be printed as bold, for example:
colors:
timestamp:
fg: cyan
message:
fg: white
bold: false
attributekey:
faint: true
fg: green
attributevalue:
faint: true
fg: white
Expected behavior: the message field should not be printed bold
Actual behavior: it is printed bold
Note: The opposite, making other fields bold, works fine.
From a quick look, this appears to be caused by a bug in the underlying "mergo" library that is used to merge the default config and the user's config. Boolean values of false are not merged. See this issue: darccio/mergo#166
