Which shells do you guys tend to use the most?

I've been trying to get into fish lately, have also used xonsh because I'm really comfortable with python so why not use that instead of bash and just inject subshells into my python scripts

Mostly used bash and sh in the past. zsh for a bit in the middle before going back to bash but now I am on fish shell since almost a year.

Any major issues besides having to change shebangs from #!/usr/bin/sh to #!/usr/bin/env bash for existing scripts? I'm still not sure I totally get the fish language, it's close enough to bash that I keep wanting to do bash, but different enough that nothing works and I get fun errors lol

No clue lol, I haven't written any scripts for fish and lost any previous scripts I had when I switched from arch to cachy which is when I found fish because it was the default.
