I used to use fish but I don't like their weird scripting language. I want my shell to be POSIX compliant.

Basically every non-Windows system comes with a POSIX-compliant shell at /bin/sh. If you're using shebangs in your POSIX shell scripts like you should, using Fish as your Friendly Interactive Shell shouldn't be a problem.

Not being POSIX is one of its main selling points. If you want POSIX, you're not the target audience
