From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

if you add fish to this it's literally me
Ive never tried fish, many people in this thread wrote that actually. Ill try
fish is a very good interactive shell. probably one down side is that it’s not posix compliant. but if you set shell for alacritty or zellij as fish and keep system shell as bash or other posix shells, you can use posix shell scripts while using fish as an interactive shell
