tide VS ohmyzsh

Tide is as close to powerlevel10k as one can get in Fish.

> The main inconvenience of fish is not even having to go into another shell for some tasks like virtual env activation, but wondering whether some command you just ran silently did something wrong because of shell incompatibility.

I have the impression that you just overlook all the rest of the things that can go wrong when using Bash, because you are simply used to it, you know it and you know how it will behave.

> Also, I wonder how fast is OMF compared to Starship?

Those are two total different projects that do not conflict at all. Personally, during my hypomania on Fish (yup), I didn't even use OMF, but added things manually and only those really needed, so that there was as little code to to maintain as possible. Fish does not have a huge number of scripts, plug-ins. If Starship is too slow for you, you might like tide. I found nothing more interesting, after which I returned to Starship anyway, but it's really fast.

Perhaps you don't need something faster than Starship, just to configure Fish in such a way that it cleans itself of garbage and runs asynchronously?

I'm using a custom terminal prompt. Mine is tide for fish shell but there are many others. A lot of people use starship, which works on every terminal

Agreed. I personally like Fisher (https://github.com/jorgebucaran/fisher) with this theme based on Powerlevel10k (https://github.com/IlanCosman/tide)

https://github.com/IlanCosman/tide is the usual recommendation for a powerlevel10k-like experience.

Prompt - https://github.com/IlanCosman/tide. Go fish and never look back.

If you are not using oh-my-zsh, you are missing out on some amazing plugins. One feature most people wish the terminal had is autocompletion. With the zsh-autosuggestions plugin, your terminal will autocomplete most commands and remember previous ones.

That’s the minimum terminal setup. You can modify the look and add plugins such as autocompletion to your terminal by installing ohmyzsh and using themes such as powerlevel10k. I am already using them.

Somewhat related is "Oh My ZSH!" which is basically zsh on steroids, it's always one of the first things I install on a new computer. It gives things like new colors, themes, plugins, and more. Highly recommend you check it out.

I had just gone through a fun tutorial for setting up oh-my-zsh with a nice color scheme from iterm2colorschemes.com and a decent prompt and I was wondering: can I make my oblique strategy look nice? how can you actually use the colors from your scheme in the output in your cli?

After this you going to visit Oh-My-Zsh which is where the magic will happen.

after automating my dotfiles, I want to automate my installations, after that I want to make my terminal easier to use so I add OMZ with many plugins, after that, I try to automate the backup of my setting on my Gnome but failed, then try using git-lfs for my big files but it turned out to be idiotic moves, bla bla bla many try and fail.
