>There is no place for bash.

Just curious, why do you say this? I've used bash for years for basic command line things and now it sounds like I've been missing out on great features that other shells have.



Sorry if my words were too strong. I said that because I like tools that do a particular job well. bash might be a middle ground tool that has moderately sane defaults and features. However, in other words, bash is inferior to fish with regard to easiness, and is worse than zsh with regard to feature set. I'm not a fan of such a tool.

I believe the world could have been a better place if they adopted fish as a default shell.


Interesting. I'll have to give both of those a try.
