You like mellow and you don't like how thin florocarbon strings are...........obvious choice is nylon. Nylon is thicker in diameter and warmer then florocarbon. Nylon has fallen out of favor with uke players but Classical guitar players still love them and they have much higher standards then uke players. Good quality nylon strings like D'Addarrio sound wonderful, warm, clear and articulate. Jake Shimaburkuro uses D'Addario Nylon strings ONLY. The disadvantages can be not as much sustain, less perceived volume, bright sounds louder to humans and limited choices compared to florocarbon.
At one time I snubbed my nose at nylon......until I actually tried them and on some instruments they do sound best. Be open minded and try different types until YOU find what YOU like
