I just found out about fish shell a few moments ago. I switched Konsole on KDE to use it instead of bash and am impressed so far. Might install it on the Pihole eventually. Good stuff, just wanted to share. :)

I have no idea where you guys are seeing any slowness for any shell, but perhaps worth pointing out that fish was recently rewritten (published as version 4.0), so if you are interested in it, might be worth another look.
My zsh is pretty slow sometimes, but that’s because I’ve enabled all kinds of git stuff in my prompt. I wish it could do those git commands asynchronously.
Ah right, the prompt would probably make a difference.
I use Starship which probably does the Git commands asynchronously. The code at least mentions multiple threads and the Git stuff is split into multiple modules, which I would assume to be fetched in parallel.
Either way, I have all the Git modules enabled and the prompt still display as quickly as my finger releases the Enter key, so definitely good enough for me. 🙂
Good point, I never even considered looking for a different prompt. Starship looks interesting, trying that today!
Yeah could well be, it was some time ago I tried it. I am happy with zsh though, and as always, use what you like.
