   This #Linux, #Unix, #macOS, #FreeBSD shell feature comparison table shows that ZSH and FISH have the most features. Why aren't you using ZSH or FISH yet?

     @nixCraft As a sysadmin, I had been interacting with all sorts of systems and bash/sh are a must. So there is no reason for me to put any effort into migrating.

     @nixCraft because they are not Bourne?

     @nixCraft Not all "command name completion" is created equal... After using fish and powershell on my work computer and getting used to a >50% hit rate when just typing five letters and pressing ➡️, bash starts to feel a bit clumsy. Would be interesting to see a powershell column in here, too—as much as we hate MS, it *is* open source and cross platform.

     @nixCraft Another interesting one I saw a video on once was xonsh. Basically a cross of bash and python that somehow works.
