So I’m currently using zsh + oh my zsh, and have been using it for some years now. It’s good, it has amazing features (via plugins) and overall I’m happy with it. But lately it has become laggy for me (probably because of plugins) and I want to see if there’s any other shell with features like ZSH but faster and lighter?

I’ve tried Fish, and usually install it on my servers, but it’s not POSIX compliant so learning what commands actually do what in Fish seems like a hassle.

I’ve heard of Oilshell, Yash, Nushell but haven’t tried any of them.

What is your setup for your interactive shell?

    Ditch oh my zsh, install the plugins directly.

    Because zsh is very fast and light. I’m using it with only a handful of plugins, manually installed, and starship
