Zsh user here
I used to agree 100% with this, until I actually tried zsh.
Once you actually try zsh, you realize it literally makes no sense to use a different user facing shell. Fish and elvish are decent alternatives for user facing shells, but I prefer zsh for the sole reason I can "sudo !!"
>since you still need to know POSIX scripting and in most cases bash
Reminder, that bash is not POSIX compliant
I personally symlink /bin/dash (around 4x faster than bash) to /bin/sh, and use /bin/zsh as my user facing shell. However, many distros rely on (the much slower) bash, and symlink to bash to /bin/sh, there are many "bashisms" that aren't POSIX compliant and break when changing /bin/sh to dash.
Nobody actually scripts in zsh, ideally you should script using /bin/sh and avoid bashisms so your code is portable with tcsh or dash.
The reason to use zsh (with oh-my-zsh) as the user facing shell is that it makes literally zero sense to deny yourself convenience at the front end. Your backend can still be wicked fast with dash, but your front end should be accomodating. Some alternatives like fish try to be "less bloated" than zsh+oh-my-zsh but zsh does try to remain POSIX compliant while fish completely abandons it, and again I like my "sudo !!"
Wyatt Perry
I like my bash though
it has all the convenient front end features I need
why would I switch to another shell?
Jaxon Thompson
zsh is more convenient, especially when it comes to tab completion
bash is super slow when it comes to tab completion, especially when there is more than one option and it has to load all the possible commands
zsh is much more responsive and convenient at that
so is fish, and elvish, but I always miss "sudo !!"
Josiah Ortiz
>zsh is much more responsive and convenient at that
actually yeah, if I ever switch to zsh, that will be the main reason

There's many more useful ways to use bash history expansions and substitutions than just sudo !!

And zsh completion gets in your way more than makes an improvement on bash autocomplete.
