Do you prefer or and do you use ?

@amadeus It's fascinating how many people still use bash.

Do they know they can change the standard shell to improve work flow? 😀

@utopify_org I think many probably do not even think about that (yet). But there is in general so much to discover and learn in the context of Linux and so the joy of discovering alternative shells still lies ahead for those users. 😊️

nocksock,

@amadeus zsh. So many convenient expansions and widgets. Also zparseopts.

omz feels weird to me. I much rather have my own aliases and scripts.

@nocksock Will eventually head the same way. Thanks for sharing!

no_match_for_a_matchless,

@amadeus I’m a big fan of fish. It does ctrl+r automatically, and has syntax highlighting by default. For scripting, bash. For general CLI-ing, Fish. 🐠

@no_match_for_a_matchless Looks interesting! Thanks for sharing.

@amadeus Oh My Zsh made my terminal so slow one day, that it annoyed me.

I started from scratch and configured zsh only with the stuff I needed. Since then it's just faster than ever and I figured out if you start zsh as a daemon, all other terminal windows will react faster, too.

OMZ is bloatware!

@utopify_org Haven't had that problem so far. But thanks for sharing your solution!

@amadeus It might depend on how fast you need a terminal window.

I need it ultra fast, because I've a shortcut to open it and after the shortcut was triggered, I instantly start typing. It's only a fraction of a second for me.

Before it took like a second to load the terminal and the first chars I typed haven't been received, which was super annoying, because it took more time to retype everything every time.

@utopify_org Ah, this I can understand. Now I know what you mean. I sometimes also have a delay of let's say 300 ms or so before I can start using a session.

vmstan,

@amadeus zsh since its the Mac default and OMZ because it makes it pretty.

@vmstan Thanks for sharing! I also used it first on macOS but have completely switched to Linux since. 🙂️ http://amadeuspaulussen.com/blog/2020/journey-to-linux

takouhai,

@amadeus specifically, oh my zsh. can't live without it. i've gotten so used to its plugins and creature comforts lol
