I use fish because it was the default in cachyos and decided to give it a fair shake. I like the built in syntax highlighting and fancy autocomplete but I miss bash scripting and built in commands that replace standard commands can be weird sometimes. I have not tried scripting fish, to lazy to learn yet another scripting language, especially if bash is the (almost) de-facto standard.

    I like having fish as an option, but don't think I'd ever use it as my default.

    If I have a long command that uses long filenames, or I don't remember the syntax of something, I can just type "fish" and it'll open up a fish shell.
