Correct.

I switched to it when macOS did - though it was on my radar for a while as so many people recommended it.

I frankly gave up on all the shells thing. I got annoyed at bash some years ago and nowadays I can’t even remember why so went for ZSH. Installed OhMyZsh and a few plugins, made the setup fully reproducible and copyable to any other machine (via chezmoi but there are many other ways) and called it a day. Ultimately gave up on plugin managers like the one @LostKobrakai mentioned because for some reason all of them were “not found” when running my daily update-everything script. Troubleshooted that for a few hours, couldn’t fix it, said “frak it” and haven’t touched my setup in like a year. There are some small tweaks like aliases and default versions of stuff in mise but outside of that, nothing.
I heard good things about fish but couldn’t be bothered. Might try it still.
To me the current way things fit together – OS, shell, terminal program, piping and lack of any schema in it and it’s all text, PATH, all LD_* env vars and many others – is super broken. Much longer topic however.

I totally just use zsh for similar reasons as others have said: someone told me it was better than bash about 15 years ago so I switched to it and haven’t really thought about it since. I don’t and never have used OhMyZsh but I did learn and applied a few things from reading its source (mostly around creating my own prompt). I use two zsh-specific plugins: zsh-autosuggestions and zsh-syntax-highlighting which I understand are two attractive things about Fish (and sure there is much more to Fish but I’ve never really looked into it seriously). Of course some other non-zsh specific programs like autojump (I know there are newer fancier ones but autojump has the features I need) and FZF but otherwise I do a lot in Vim, so that probably has something to do with me not feeling a lot pain around having a fancy shell. I certainly might be missing out, but ignorance is bliss!

Installed zoxide and never had to configure it, it just works and does exactly what I want.
I’m biased in favor of Rust programs though.

Interesting you chose to write your comment in English… why is it not written in Rust?
Zoxide is one (maybe the only one) I was thinking of! It has that nifty pop-up when there are collisions but I prefer to just add weight to the one I actually want and not think about it again (although I do always forget the option for adding and subtracting weight so that is annoying, but it’s a rare occurence).

I did it the hard way and have a 50 line config, gives me a lot more confidence if something goes weird, zsh is a complex beast

I am using oh-my-zsh precisely because I don’t have to worry about something going wrong.
It’s been super stable and I don’t remember I’ve ever had trouble with it, just install, enable plugins I like (not many) and theme and it updates itself and leaves me alone.
I only wish there was something like that for Vim.
