@hobblin taking into account what I guess is a common progression, bash -> zsh -> fish, I feel the context switch isn’t all that bad. All the years in bash then zsh softens the impact a bit. Now I probably wouldn’t recommend fish to someone who is just starting out for the reasons mentioned as I feel they are apt observations.

It’s easy enough to add an export function to fish and any scripts should have a proper shebang. Sure there might be some friction but so far it seems worth it. Being a zsh user I still had to deal with dropping into bash now and then. Time will tell I guess but right now I’m still in the honeymoon phase

@sbiewald ah so that’s the constraint, seems like an important detail to include in the notification message one receives when attempting to do so 😂
