Oh my zsh and a few zsh plugings completely blow fish out of the water for me. First off zsh doesn't have any supposed syntax improvements so I can take any new skills I acquire to environments other than my own.

I think array indexes start at 1 in zsh rather than 0 as they do in bash. It sounds like such a ludicrous change that I'm having trouble recalling if this is really true, but I had previously used zsh a lot... Just got lazy with my last MBP upgrade and never installed zsh.

fish is also not posix compliant, it would never ship as a default shell https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48732986/why-how-fish-do...
FISH, the "Friendly Interactive Shell"-- now 15 years old-- provides a more substantial leap forward in autocompletion and auto-suggestion, while adding some breaking changes to improve the overall design of the language and user experience. It's still highly compatible with bash or zsh syntax for day-to-day usage.
