Six months with the fish shell
I switched my interactive shell to fish in the winter and kept bash for scripts. That split turned out to be the right call.
What I like
- Autosuggestions from history work out of the box.
- Sane defaults: I deleted most of my old dotfile.
abbris nicer than aliases because the expansion stays visible.
What I miss
Pasting one-liners from documentation that assume bash syntax. The fix is simply bash -c '…' for those, and it happens less often than I expected.
