I just found out about fish shell a few moments ago. I switched Konsole on KDE to use it instead of bash and am impressed so far. Might install it on the Pihole eventually. Good stuff, just wanted to share. :)

      I have no idea where you guys are seeing any slowness for any shell, but perhaps worth pointing out that fish was recently rewritten (published as version 4.0), so if you are interested in it, might be worth another look.

        Yeah could well be, it was some time ago I tried it. I am happy with zsh though, and as always, use what you like.

      I had the opposite from you, zsh slow even with a couple plugins (or no plugins). Like, I could see a delay with my naked eye between opening the terminal emulator and the prompt appearing. Not with bash or fish though. 👌

      How many plugins do you have? To get the same features that fish has I was seeing multi second loading times with zsh with every plugin system I tried.
