NB. Kitty terminal background lives for tens of seconds only because Mabox ‘knows’ that it is a terminal and overwrites with that of Terminal theme of Mabox Colorizer.

Mabox have theme.sh configured by default to easily choose from ~400 themes available → GitHub - lemnos/theme.sh: A script which lets you set your $terminal theme.
th
and you can select theme you need interactively.
If you don’t like that and want to configure terminal theme yourself then you have to look at .bashrc and disable theme.sh
