I have sort of been eyeing fish on and off for years. I enjoy my oh my zsh setup and have it somewhat customized. I use a modified version of the funky theme. (I can share if interested.) When I'm at work I don't try new things that might affect my productivity (like trying a new shell) and when I have motivation to do techy stuff in my free time I really need to utilize it to do what I want because my focus really meanders.
I was the person who used every kind of zsh package manager that existed. I even had performance tweaks for some because they were too slow for me. I didn’t even use oh my zsh because it was too slow, and I had hundreds of customizations and maybe 30 plugins.
I no longer needed any of the plugins except fzf and fzf-marks when I switched to fish. It really did simplify my life a whole lot. I don’t ever mess with configs anymore.
That’s fair. But look at it this way, when you’re at work you’re being paid for it, and you might eventually improve your productivity.
Also, you can have a look at oh my fish, it’s an alternative to omz I used before switching to starship.
I feel pretty productive with CLI stuff. Fish does look nifty though. I'll give it a shot sometime. Oil has been intriguing too, I've enjoyed reading updates about it over the years back on r/programming. https://www.oilshell.org/cross-ref.html?tag=OSH#OSH
