tide VS skim

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.

I really like using something like fuzzy search for menus like these. https://github.com/Cloudef/bemenu is pretty cool in that it works both in a terminal, X11 and on Wayland, so if you want to do something graphical later you can easily migrate. There's also fzf and skim, which work similarly but are only for the terminal.

Current profiles (to be improved upon): | Profile | Details | | ---------------- | ------------------------------------------ | | default | fzf-lua defaults, uses neovim "builtin" previewer and devicons (if available) for git/files/buffers | | fzf-native | utilizes fzf's native previewing ability in the terminal where possible using bat for previews | | fzf-tmux | similar to fzf-native and opens in a tmux popup (requires tmux > 3.2) | | max-perf | similar to fzf-native and disables icons globally for max performance | | telescope | closest match to telescope defaults in look and feel and keybinds | | skim | uses skim as an fzf alternative, (requires the sk binary) |

There’s also a variety of fuzzy finders like https://github.com/lotabout/skim or fzf. Basically the same thing, but different interface.

Have you ever tried sk? skim is an fzf re-write in 🦞. While I use it occasionally, I never really incorporated fzf into my workflow so I'd be interested to hear your opinion.

I’m not familiar at all with fzf, but I do know that skim supports this.

You state that as a blank and white fact, but there's nuance.

fzf skim

Agreed, but use skim instead
