Advice for decorating around 70s fake wood paneling?

I’m renovating a 1970s a-frame cabin and every wall is covered in these fake wood panels. The majority of our budget is being spent on the bathroom and kitchen, so ripping them out and replacing with something else will have to wait until a few years down the road. My initial thought was to paint them white to brighten up the space, but then I was thinking maybe I lean into them as-is and go with a mid-mod vibe. Has anyone successfully decorated with similar paneling? I’d love to see your space or hear any suggestions for working with these!
