I've been running fish from the development branch for about a year, and I'm happy to say that nothing about it feels like it's beta. It's rock-solid (IMO) and my favorite shell 🐟

Fish is a surprisingly good shell.

It's not POSIX compatible, but I don't really care, it only executes its own scripts / functions. It's not as innovative as elvish or nu, but it kind of does everything very conveniently and shell-y for lack of a better word – and it always seems so simple. It seems conservative in design, but the old concepts have been evolved in a very usable way. Something I can't say for all the other shells I've tried – at some point, it always gets awkward where fish is just elegant.

Ruining another software, thanks for the warning.

More and more I’ve seen these contextless comments. It’s really odd. Do people just expect us to know what they’re thinking?

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
