#52What about Oh My Fish https://github.com/oh-my-fish/oh-my-fish Has it been upgated to support new version?
I love using oh-my-fish but I honestly think a lot of people have moved to using fisher. Because of OMF's lack of updates.

#53Just loving every single bit of it since I switched to it. Had a couple of thoughts of migrating to zsh mostly because its more POSIX compliant but it doesn't look like such a valid argument as time passes by
I think POSIX compliance of interactive shells is completely irrelevant. POSIX shells are relevant when you're writing scripts that will be distributed, but there's no reason that needs to be done with the same shell you use interactively. I use fish presently and zsh before that for nearly 15 years, but my shell scripts have always started with #!/bin/sh It's not like fish installs to /bin/sh, nor are /bin/sh script…
Yeah I agree POSIX compliance is irrelevant in the interactive usage context, the only issue that rose here and there were command substitutions mostly, something which this release takes care of.
The sole reason I was contemplating switching to zsh in regards to POSIX was the fact my shell scripting knowledge is rather shallow and I could perhaps improve it a bit while working on functions I write for personal interactive use.. Needless to say I've written them in fish haha.. If my assumptions are right what I need to master is combining properly the coreutils and the general mentality of piping things from one command to another etc - I could be wrong tho

#54I love fish. It helped me get into linux terminal. It really accelerates the learning curve and turbocharges explorability. I wish more TUI types of apps took hints from fish’s UX

#55Wanted to love/daily-drive fish but the incompatibility with bash/zsh made things more troublesome than I had the time and patience for.
Exciting to see it inching toward POSIX compatibility

You can just use/run all bash and zsh scripts from your fish shell...

#58Does anyone know how to disable the bright red color when you first start typing a word? I find it very distracting (specially on over-saturated wide gamut displays) and went back to zsh because of it.

#59People who have replaced fish with something else (other than bash and zsh) after using it for a significant time, to what and why?

I used fish for a few years and finally switched to zsh. I wouldn't consider myself a super shell power user, so eventually I got tired of trying to make standard things work (such as nvm and similar helper utilities). Yes there are workarounds and solutions but I just wanted plug and play for stuff I'd find in the wild. Turns out that zsh with ohmyzsh has much of fish's functionality (that I utilized anyway), so I'm happy with it.
