for a while, i was so clueless that i didn’t even know i was using a zsh terminal. i thought i was in bash because i watched linux tutorials on youtube
zsh is fine until you want to write a script and realise the difference in resources available online. Most people assume bash for shell scripting so that’s what you’ll need to use too.
go with elvish, it’s new, sleek, and it even has functions that return functions, which means my plan to weaponize the english language by turning every word in a lower case punctuation free sentence into a series of shell commands is almost complete, MUAHAHAHAHA

Anyone who is learning new stuff in this thread should really try fish, it makes using the command line so much nicer.
I started out with bash, then eventually realized that I was using zsh because I’m a macbro. I’m a little slow :(
To be fair, they only switched to zsh in 2019, so a lot of tutorials probably still assume bash

Just tried it, working is indeed nicer after some nice fresh tuna and Sushi.

Fish is such a nice shell.
I wrote a collection of small apps for fish a few weeks ago. If anyone wants to check it out: https://github.com/matdombrock/angler.fish
