By default owner's permissions, size, user/group is in bold text. Not sure why it should be that way by default.
I have to set EXA_COLORS to disable it.

I think that date/time color should be a bit different, because it looks very similar to folders color.

here is my EXA_COLORS I am currently using (xx=37 is added recently for dashes as workaround)

EXA_COLORS="uu=33:gu=33:ur=33:uw=31:ux=32:ue=32:sn=32:da=36:xx=37"

Colors are also depend on the terminal theme you're using. I found that default eza/exa colors look best when using Gotham theme in Alacritty.

you can see eza colors look better on the left because they a bit "dimmed" (yellow is too bright on the right).

Color scales for both sizes and last modified dates, please.
Also, color of x in permissions should match the color of executable files, imho.
