Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

fish-shell: the user-friendly command-line shell
I went through the initial config wizard of zsh exactly once, almost a decade ago[1]. It took me maybe 5-10 minutes, and even though I don't fully understand what each command means, I haven't modified it in all this time, and it works well. I really don't think this was any significant waste of time or tedious task - I was just as free to simply ignore it.
Most of the remainder of my zsh config are prompt utilities and other things I've added over the years. I don't use or really need any plugins, though if I needed, last time I tried zplug it was really easy to set up and use.

Atuin – Magical Shell History
Atuin is lovely, although I found some of its defaults pretty annoying until I changed them:
- It turns out I basically never want fuzzy search through my command history, and certainly not by default. I gave it a try for a couple weeks but it was very frustrating to be searching for a particular command, type in the exact prefix, and have the thing I was looking for hidden among hundreds of irrelevant entries. Solution: search_mode = "fulltext" in Atuin's config.toml
- Having a full screen pop-up appear whenever I hit up was really jarring, especially since I have a habit of hitting up a few times when I'm at the command line thinking of what I need to do next, to sort of refresh my memory on what I was just doing; the popup very effectively destroyed that chain of thought. Solution: eval "$(atuin init bash --disable-up-arrow)" in .bashrc
These are pretty minor issues and it's possible my preferences are just different from most!
Atuin now works really nicely for me. My only outstanding issues are:
- Under mosh the UI ends up corrupting the screen; apparently this is really more of a mosh bug (no alternate screen support) and you can work around it by having tmux/screen running: https://github.com/atuinsh/atuin/issues/1324
- I still don't have a great model in my head of how sync works and find myself occasionally force-syncing across a few systems until I convince myself everything is in the same state.
- It would be nice to have some kind of settings sync so I don't have to make the config changes mentioned above on 10 different systems. Surprisingly I don't see a feature request for this yet so maybe I'll go open one...
Anyway I don't want these issues to stop people from trying Atuin – it's a really nice piece of software. I almost never make changes to the default environment so I consider it a testament to how useful it is that I've added it to all the systems I use regularly!
