Selenized! Is also well thought out and available for the terminal, IDEs, vim, tmux, etc.

Nice share, gotta check this one out!

Gruvbox [https://github.com/morhetz/gruvbox] has always seemed quite similar to me, particularly in its light modes.

catppuccin [1] is similar, had been using solarized for almost a decade, but tried catppuccin about 6 months ago and it was so good I’ve switched over permanently. Like solarized there are light and dark variants and there are versions for vim and vs code and many other editors as well.

These are the soft light themes I enjoyed after Solarized Light.

You might like one of the lighter gruvbox variations:
