I kind of miss bash, after being forced to move to zsh, because bash is generally faster, and consumes less resources - but with oh-my-zsh, I kind of get the point, because darn it is pretty, and I continue to blow away some of the greybeards in my group when they shoulder surf and see me type 'z something' -> goes to /some/monstrous/path/to/something .. this, for some reason, always gets oohs and aahs ...
Just, gotta remember, that feeling like you need to upgrade your laptop just because you changed SHELLS is rarely a good sign.
- sirkarthik 6y agoYeah its a trade-off between performance and convenience. One should know when to stop and how to slim down based on the usage. Often installing too many plugins when not using them is something that I have witnessed often with curious developers. While the real reason is installing too many plugins, the blame is on zsh ;)
- fit2rule 6y agoHaven't done any plugins beyond what oh-my-zsh brings with it, but thanks for informing me that I should keep an eye on that .. pretty wild that we have plugins for shells, sheesh. Whats next, an App Store? ;P
- sirkarthik 6y agooh-my-zsh comes with minimal set of default plugins. The others you can add. Check out oh-my-zsh github page for themes and plugins. I guess the comment in your plugin configuration section will also warn you about adding too many plugins having performance impact.
