> every time someone asks "how do i accomplish X task on the command line" (witness literally thousands of Stack Overflow posts like this) the answer is in bash. Those answers, imo, come in 3 forms: 1. Short simple bash commands that will work in fish 2. Overly clever "one-liners" that would be better as a script 3. Edge cases. (3) is rare enough that I don't see it as a big enough hurdle to avoid using fish.
