Converting zsh theme to fish
Now my terminal looks very good! Unfortunately, though, I noticed a screenshot from the colorls Github page and now I definitely want to configure fish to look like this, but that theme is made for zsh (oh my zsh).

This project is heavily inspired by the super colorls project but with some little differences. For example it is written in rust and not in ruby which makes it much faster.

I'm stumped on how to do this, or if its even possible.
I see you're using the paint gem which should be able to style text in bold and other attributes using ANSI escape sequences. While the SGR table_parameters) says 11–19 allow you to chose "alternate fonts" I would be surprised if this changed the typeface used to draw characters on the screen. Generally this is done through terminal-specific settings.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing colorls and Paint you can also consider the following projects:
exa - A modern replacement for ‘ls’.
Tmuxinator - Manage complex tmux sessions easily
powerlevel10k - A Zsh theme
Pastel - Terminal output styling with intuitive and clean API.
HighLine - A higher level command-line oriented interface.
tty-cursor - Terminal cursor movement and manipulation of cursor properties such as visibility
Terminal Table - Ruby ASCII Table Generator, simple and feature rich.
TerminalImage - :desktop_computer: Show high resolution images on your terminal !
