I never understand comments like these. Why do you have to twist this to be about "ignorant fan boys"?

Not enough drama in the world already?

Actually, maybe it's more the fact that at a prominent tech company: * zsh is the default shell on a large proportion of servers that have read-only /home, so you can't easily change to your preferred shell * a training guide that many new developers follows states incorrectly that:

> If you are using Bash and you have the option of using ZSH, you should switch to it. ZSH has additional auto-complete and history features that Bash doesn’t have (but don't worry - those features will not be relevant to this tutorial.)

oh-my-zsh seems to be recommended by a lot of developers in this company, even though: * the default mechanism to install is curl|sh (there is no Homebrew package) on developer machines which have privileged access to a lot of resources * installing it via its recommended installation procedure on dev machines would violate company policies, whereas installing bash-completion wouldn't

Sorry, but I've read too many posts that say "bash sucks, it doesn't do <thing that bash has done for years before zsh did it> like zsh does".

And there's a constructive way to respond to those posts, if you must absolutely respond.

Yours ain't it.

Ironic response.

Fair point
