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?

At the moment I'm using zsh with powerlevel10k. But powerlevel10k is not really supported anymore, and seems to be basically on life support. While it still works for now, I have been thinking of switching over to fish. But the lack of posix compatibility is holding me back a bit.

Powershell, but heavily customized.

Why the downvotes? Ps is pretty good and it works well on Linux too.

I used zsh, urxvt and konsole. I do prefer zsh. Urxvt is nice too.

I think you're conflating shells and terminals.

[-] Red_sun_in_the_sky@lemmy.ml 1 points 5 months ago

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.

Swisher sweets but backwoods works too

I don't really rate zsh personally. I find the additional features/syntactic sugar it adds are a poor tradeoff for lower portability. I also end up changing the settings in my zshrc to make it behave more like bash.

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.
