Why the timestamps are that important? Honestly asking. You can always time your commands with "time".
When you’re debugging, especially a complex system, especially during an outage or postmortem, understanding when your commands executed relative to when your log lines appeared is really helpful.

I personally use a modified zbell (in zsh) to give me a notification when a command finishes after 30 seconds, and send me an email if it takes over 2 minutes.

You don't need to know what branch you're on before running commands? I cant tell you the number of times ive been on the wrong branch executing stuff.

I've used Powerlevel10k for ages ( https://github.com/romkatv/powerlevel10k ), but it seems it's no longer actively developed / maintained. I think it's a lot cleaner, how I have it set up right now it shows some information like timestamp, Ruby versions, command runtime etc on the right side, whereas Starship shows it right at the prompt.
Same here, that's what prompted my search. I felt I could get closest with oh-my-posh.
