Re: [Fish-users] Fish sucks (but your shell sucks more)

[Grissiom <cha...@gm...>]

I think the author spent more words saying "fish rocks" than "fish
sucks". That's interesting. ;)

When I read "They had a chance to create a world-changing command-line
shell, and they blew it.

Fish is completely incompatible with the traditional bash/zsh script
syntax, making it difficult to transfer skills from other shells..." I
laugh loud because how could people change the world when it stick
with " horribly unintuitive, obtuse, and generally crap"? That's a
paradox.

I think it's better to tell people "forgot the good old one and try a
brand new one" than tell people "Hey, here is a better one, but there
are some subtle difference. 1)...2)...3)......" Yes, I think Zsh vs
Bash fall into the latter case.

I don't use shell within my vim very often, so I don't know what point
#3 talking about. I think it might be a bug(or a new feature
request?). For #6, Dylan and I have some posts about performance of
fish. Yes, fish is slower than bash/zsh. There should be some room to
optimize it.

I used to use Zsh as my primary shell.
