    i’m all about oh-my-zsh. I mostly like it because it loads a random theme every time you run source ~/.zshrc, so you get exposed to a lot of different themes, so you can pick one that looks really nice. The one I’ve gone with was the most minimalist theme I could find. export ZSH_THEME="miloshadzic"

      OMZ is overrated. It’s too much code for too little effect when most of the plugins boil down to aliases and prompt themes, and all you have to do is source them in your .zshrc anyway.

      I am by no means saying that the plugins and themes are useless. I’m saying that OMZ is unnecessary.

      Meh, I find OMZ a bit too opinionated.

      antidote with the right plugins + starship with the right prompt builder beats anything.

          I tried to learn it, but failed. Looks like I’d love to use both, but I have no idea where to start. Any suggestions?

            It might be easiest to work backwards with starship, see how it integrates with fish then see how to run fish.

            Then install fish, add starship to it.

            99% of my usage is around how it helps me navigate the terminal, I use bash for all my scripts lmao
