Am I out of the loop? what’s wrong with zsh?
Classic linux tribalism. Use what you like and don’t get involved with these confrontational nerds.
I mean, there’s some things that became validly toxic due to their developers, example off the top of my head: Reiserfs
True, software can call you a slur.
Or kill your mail order Russian wife.
This is bait.
And I’m ready to
fishwhat’s fish got? I’m liking zsh here but am always open to a distraction instead of getting work done. :)
Lovely OOTB defaults. I basically change nothing except the theme.
Autocomplete, git context, etc. The QOL stuff you’d expect.
oh interesting. will give it a shot. basically sounds like zsh plus omz?
The main differentiator of fish over everything else is it prioritizes intuitive behavior over backwards compatibility.
Zsh is to bash as c++ is to c. Most bash scripts and habits will work in zsh, but zsh is just more convenient and has more options. Fish is intentionally different.
Do I wish fish had existed instead of bash so we had a nicer terminal experience? On the whole, yes. But I also couldn’t be bothered to learn another shell where most of the instructions online won’t be able to help you, and I ended up sticking with zsh.
Currently using
zshbut I installedfishyesterday to try it out because I’m thinking of switching. All thezshplugins I have are basically just replicating whatfishhas by default anyway and fish might do it better.Plus, look at your name!
