The Bun Shell
I agree. Iโve written about this before but this is what murex (1) does. It reimplements some of coreutils where there are benefits in doing so (eg sed, grep etc -like parsing of lists that are in formats other than flat lines of text. Such as JSON arrays)
Mutex does this by having these utilities named slightly different to their POSIX counterparts. So you can use all of the existing CLI tools completely but additionally have a bunch of new stuff too.
Far too many alt shells these days try to replace coreutils and that just creates friction in my opinion.

Jaq โ A jq clone focused on correctness, speed, and simplicity
This is exactly what Murex shell does. It has lots of builtin tools for querying structured data (of varying formats) but also supports POSIX pipes for using existing tools like `jq` et al seamlessly too.

The Case for Nushell
Stable is a problem because a lot of these shells donโt offer any guarantees for breaking changes.
My own shell, https://github.com/lmorg/murex is committed to backwards compatibility but even here, there are occasional changes made that might break backwards compatibility. Though I do push back on such changes as much as possible, to the extent that most of my scripts from 5 years ago still run unmodified.

Nushell.sh ls โ where size > 10mb โ โsort-by modified
This is similar to how my shell works. It still just passes bytes around but additionally passes information about how those bytes could be interpreted. A schema if you will. So it works as cleanly with POSIX / GNU / et al tools as it does with fancy JSON, YAML, CSV and other document formats.
It basically sits somewhere between Powershell and Bash: typed pipelines like Powershell but without sacrificing familiarity with all the CLI commands you already use day in and day out.

As an aside, Iโm about to drop a massive update in the next few days that will make the shell even more intuitive to use.

Fly through your shell history
How does this differ from https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search ? Except that yours seems to be built-in and zsh-history-substring-search is ~800 lines of zsh

What plugin is used to autocomplete paths? (Here the user types ~ and / and the path to the file is automatically shown)
It is the feature of fish shell, which is also ported to zsh via zsh-history-substring-search plugin.

History: how to suggest previous ls... command
zsh-history-substring-search: This is a clean-room implementation of the Fish shell's history search feature, where you can type in any part of any command from history and then press chosen keys, such as the UP and DOWN arrows, to cycle through matches.
-
zsh
In most shells, you can make use of Ctrl+R to perform backwards search through your history. After pressing Ctrl+R, you can type a substring you want to match for commands in your history. As you keep pressing it, you will cycle through the matches in your history. This can also be enabled with the UP/DOWN arrows in zsh.

Does anyone know the best practice insofar as where to place aliases, plugins and functions
That doesn't have the same behavior as fish. This plugin does: https://github.com/zsh-users/zsh-history-substring-search

In that case, history substring search can come in handy.
