What's your preferred shell & why?
Both provide scripting languages that are more "functional" (in the sense of functional programming). nushell is newer, written in Rust, under active development, and seems to be stabilizing. es is older (circa 1990s), written in C, and based on rc and scheme. There's also a C++ version xs that appears abandoned as well as a few forks sprinkled around. None are POSIX-compatible.

The Fish Shell Is Amazing
I'd rather have a more powerful shell that uses a functional style yet preserves many shell semantics we're all familiar with (like XS, https://github.com/TieDyedDevil/XS , except maintained!) than an easier-to-use shell

[Question] What are the best plugins for zsh ?

Why should I care wether my shell is POSIX compliant?
I was using oh-my-zsh as my plugin manager for a long time and startup speed was probably much slower than fish (although normal usage wasn't) because omz enables a lot of features and plugins I didn't need/use. I went to prezto and then antigen as plugin manager and for the last couple years I have been using zimfw, which is great compromise between a plugin manager that can add and update plugins, and literally just generating a small bootstrap script that just sources the plugins and otherwise is entirely out of the way.

Long time zinit user looking to trim down my configuration while maintaining easy plugin/binary setup
I moved most of my config over to zim -- been pretty happy for the most part. I see that zinit got forked, which makes me happy, that was a mess and what made me look elsewhere. Hopefully the new committers can do it well.
