If all goes well with my #VoidLinux#ZFSBootMenu install tomorrow I might be tempted to give #Zsh a try instead of my usual trusty #Bash ?
Anyone want to chime in with reasons for and against zsh ?
@JustineSmithies If you haven't seen it already, I wrote a small blog-post a few weeks ago about how you can make the bash prompt a bit more bearable by configuring readline. Especially for completions there are a few settings that really improve usability, at least for me.
@JustineSmithies I use zsh with ohmyzsh (adds things like history autocompletion, better than Bash) and I am much more productive, to the point where I now find it frustrating when I have to use Bash.
Oh no if I did jumpt ship to #ZSH I currently use Starship prompt but I see there is also Spaceship prompt specifically for ZSH.
Anyone use the later and is it better to use than Starship ?
@JustineSmithies I’ve always just used the default spaceship config on both zsh and bash. Usually root is bash and my user is zsh and they both seem to work just fine with the default config. As for zsh vs bash I’ve always told myself I’d make bash have all the bells and whistles in zsh with various other programs but have never gotten around to it so I’m still sticking with zsh and keep bash in root as a precaution of overzealous configs I might make in zsh. I’m pretty happy with zsh so far
