What’s your favourite to use? Mine is Fish due to its ease of use and user friendly approach.
Bash is the pepperoni of shell tools being reliable in every field no matter what but I’ve moved to Fish as I wanted to try something different.
So what’s your shell of choice?
I have been enjoying fish a lot over the last few months, but I generally try to use Bash, it makes cross-*NIX administration that much easier.
POSIX shell. No, seriously. Works everywhere.
After that Python for usability.
Nushell
Zsh works for me
Plus oh-my-zsh and the powerline 10k theme - this is my go-to shell.
Pure theme ftw
My job is working with a ton of servers over ssh. Bash is the most convenient balance between features and not needing to do any setup.
Fish for an interactive shell, and I’ll often drop back to bash for writing a script. I can never remember how to do basic program flow in fish. Bash scripting is not great, but you can always find an example to remind you of how it goes.
Bash is my favourite one, second to it being Fish
Fish, less config and super easy to set things like path, colors, and the support for dev environments and tooling is better than it was. Used to be a Zsh user, but moved since I distro hop so dang much. Less time to get going.
I’m here for the colors :3 teehee
I used zsh, urxvt and konsole. I do prefer zsh. Urxvt is nice too.
I think you’re conflating shells and terminals.
I said I prefer zsh. I used terminals like urxvt when I used window managers. Urxvt + zsh works fine. On kde I didn’t mind using zsh + konsole. Hope that clears up.
Bash is fine. Zsh on Macs is fine too. I can’t stress how useful it is to learn busybox if you end up with a shell on an embedded device.
All these crazy shells people talk about are kinda like race car controls. I’m not driving a race car, I’m driving a box truck with three on the tree.
Fish for interactive shell. “It depends” for scripting, but usually ends up Bash since it is the NixOS default.
Bash, zshell, BusyBox…you don’t really need anything else
I’ve explained my choice for zsh here
Nicely configured it’s so convenient that I spend most of my time in the terminal and don’t even use a file explorer anymore. It can also be expanded with some plugins for specific use-cases.
You and me both.
Your website’s theme is very pleasant to look at and also serves good for a blog since everything is easy to read. Good job, if you were the one who made it
Thank you very much for your feedback. I’ve spent quite some time trying to create a minimalist and efficient theme. Very glad to hear that I met this goal.
zsh with grml config because I’m too lazy to make my own config.
