How about instead of changing the shell get more out from your existing one.

Starship [0] and fzf [1] will make your life much easier in any shell.

I use fish but they work with bash, zsh and the like.

Why not both? I use starship and fzf with a fish shell.

Fzf is a great productivity boost, especially because it integrates with everything so well. Starship is... nice and flashy, but I don't think it actually improves my productivity a lot. The biggest feature for me is giving me the current git branch, and I used to do it with my fish theme. I mean it's nice to know what version of Python I have currently, it's just not a killer feature.

Sure, I too use fish as I wrote in the original post.

Starship gives me quite a bit of situational awareness:

- git status, with branch, uncommited stuff, all that

- my python venv I'm in, not just the system python version

- my aws profile active

- etc

Forgot to add zoxide [0] and ripgrep [1].
