Here’s more or less how it’s supposed to look: http://hans.fugal.net/vim/colors/desert.html (it’s the original desert theme, not the desert256 fork, but it’s still much closer than the vimcolorschemes.com rendering)
FWIW, modern reworks of the built-in colorschemes are on their way [1]. We plan to add more third-party colorschemes in the future as we streamline the creation and validation process. [1] https://github.com/vim/vim/pull/9795
Nice. I love that the OP has so many themes to pick from but repeatedly trying 3rd-party color schemes over the years only made me realize how many criteria have to be met for a color scheme to actually work for me in practice (apparently I'm very picky when it comes to that). I have yet to find one that beats vim's `default` theme. The only tweak I made is to not use underline for the current line but a slightly dar…
I either have to change vim's background setting from dark to light or use a different color scheme like zellner.

When is this going to be pulled in?

If it's possible, would you please post a screenshot of how this looks? Not sure how to easily see this, and don't want to learn how unless I know I'll like it. Thanks!
updated.
Over recent years I've been drawn to the cross-tool themes like Nord and Dracula. https://www.nordtheme.com/ https://draculatheme.com/ Having consistency between neovim, fzf, bat, tmux, tig and fish is lovely.
I achieve that same consistency with virtually zero configuration by simply setting the colors in my terminal and forgetting about it. Stopped all the fiddling with color schemes quite a while ago. Good explanation: https://jeffkreeftmeijer.com/vim-16-color/

I used dracula for a while, but I just can't deal with it during the day. So I've been looking for a uniform light theme for day time coding. I hope nord theme can fill in the gaps there, but it looks like it's still early days for it.
I really like papercolor for a light theme: https://github.com/NLKNguyen/papercolor-theme

You switched from VIM to VS Code? How was that transition?
VS Code is my vim. I use VSCode NeoVim and clangd and a few other extensions. I've used a ton of vims and vim apps, but I'm just done with tweaking editors now. I'm happy with this setup. My color theme is Light (Visual Studio) . I like it but then color themes are personal choices.

On one hand, you have a quite reasonable syntax highlighting and highlight groups that mostly use the so-called ANSI colors of the underlying terminal emulator, which are all good things.
On the other hand, the highlighting of UI elements is clearly a second thought, a light background is assumed by default, the highlight group are inconsistent, and Vim's own heuristics for determining what features are supported by the underlying terminal emulator are beyond broken.
Some of those issues could be easily fixable at a high level if the default colorscheme was actually a colorscheme like blue or desert but it is not so, as we focused our efforts on the latter, we didn't try to fix default.
It is on our radar, though.
