From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Garuda is great. It did get me addicted to the fish shell though and I've since moved back to windows for work reasons and I hate everything now.

Honestly, fish is the only thing I hate about Garuda. The variety of commands is good, but doing any kinda scripting in it physically hurts me. Wish they kinda just stuck with a more conventional shell like zsh.

Feel like most people still do the scripting in Bash for portability reasons, and then just run Fish as the interactive shell

I use fish, have never once written a fish script. Just write bash scripts and they tend to work fine, otherwise run em in bash
