Dude this series is awesome! As a newish-to-Linux user, I'm learning about new tools (to me) and their functionality. Keep up the good work.

Thx for watching!

i love fishshell with starship

I've been using fish for about a year now. There's tons of benefits, and I really haven't found any negatives.

It’s certainly not as easy to rice as bash & zsh, assuming you’re trying to do something custom (video on that coming soon).

@Maxblau Huh? I've been running shell scripts with fish pretty regularly. All you need to do is just add a "#! /bin/bash" line on the top of each script so it knows to use bash. It's really not very difficult.

@Maxblau Why would you want to do that though? No offense but this seems to me like a very niche reason to not use fish. Just the autocomplete feature in fish has probably saved me hours of my life than if I had to type all those commands manually every time or use tab to autocomplete one part at a time.

Fish is awesome. I've been using it for years. You can do a lot of configuration in the browser but I still use the fish config file for a lot of stuff. I prefer to use abbreviations as opposed to aliases though.

@@makc It works like abbreviations in Vim where it expands your abbreviation and you can see the full command. Helps you remember stuff.

Where do you all get those "ASCII" char you showed in your zshrc file @1:14 I've been looking for them but as English ain't my native language I have a hard time writing the correct search words for it. " I need 'em baaad :P "

I always thought fish was kinda neat, but I never had a desire to switch to it. There's nothing wrong with it, I think I'm just boring or something :)

Same boat almost 100%. Fish is cool, but Zsh already does everything I want.

Its a shame a lot of scripts arent written with fish in mind. It not being POSIX compliant kinda iffed it for me. I believe it also doesnt have a POSIX compliant mode either.
