fish is, by far, the best shell that I've ever tried. It just works. It has amazing features built in. It doesn't need a ton of configuration to look half decent. I quite literally haven't even looked for plugins for it so I'm not even sure if they're supported. Regardless, I haven't needed any after many years of using fish.

@sudorandom the only disadvantages I can say about #fish #shell are:
- it's not that standard shell on #Linux (#bash is!)
- it's quite THICC at ~ 2,5 MB
- It obviously (and necessarily) breaks compatibility to any other shell...
Still, I do intent to package it someday for @OS1337 simply because for a "fully-fledged, everyday" #toybox + #musl / #linux distro that wants to maximize #MDA @ 80x25 I'll propably need more functionality than I can reasonably expect @landley to include into toybox's own shell, which AFAIK doesn't support
.bash_aliasesor otheralias/functiondeclarations per config file *as of the time of writing this...- But then again that's me being nitpicky and different scopes of interest...
