I've been using zsh with "oh my zsh". I started using it as it sounded silly and fun compared to bash. Realistically it doesn't really male mich difference. I like the auto complete, but I couldn't say for sure whether it's the shell, oh-my-zsh or what. But I like it.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

It's great, but that's not the prompt. The prompt is the thing that shows up before you type a command, usually with a $ or # and the current path.
I guess I only glanced and assumed they were talking about shells 🐚. I'll shut up and pay more attention in furure 🤣
Fish + OMF.... Work flawlessly
I use bash-it and set it to powerline theme
I'm using guake
I like that it's just the F12 key away then F11 to expand to full window. Supports multiple tabs.
Anyone using guake?
I use budspencer theme on fish. https://github.com/oh-my-fish/oh-my-fish/blob/master/docs/Themes.md#budspencer-theme It looks cool and yellow, which I like. I prints the path on the far right and parent folders are printed only with initial letter, so it doesn't take 2 lines in the shell and it ends up pretty short. It also has git integration and some budspencer exclusive commands to perform some cools actions, I don't care about and I have never used. Also, I like that command errors are displayed as ✔ or ✘ on the next prompt. It also prints the time the last command has been running. I use vi keybidings, so prompt color changes when I change the mode feel cool. I would also like to have the execution time for every command, but I have another theme for that I don't remember the name of on my work machine.
