For me, I really want to get into niri, but the lack of XWayland support scares me (I know there’s solutions, but I don’t understand them yet).
Also, I stopped using Emacs (even though I love its design and philosophy with my whole heart) because it’s very slow, even as a daemon.
Just take the dive into fish. It used to have a lot of problems with incompatibilities, but that’s been less of a problem lately.
I haven’t found nushell to be that great as a day-to-day shell simply because it integrates poorly with other Linux commands. But when it comes to data manipulation, it is simply amazing. I’m currently (slowly) working on a plugin to query LDAP. The
ldapsearch
command uses the LDIF format, which is hard to parse reliably. Integrating easily into nushell would be a huge boon.
