Windows Terminal with PowerShell. With Terminal I run git, psql, hg, vim, sqlite. With PS I slice and dice text, csv, xml, mock up web services and clients, curl, ssh, write helper scripts, etc. Better than any unix shell I have ever used.

For interactive slicing and dicing of csv, xml, json, etc. I like VisiData. For scripting I like miller and jq. Not sure how that compares to your PS setup.

There are some recent Unix shells, like nushell for working with structured data, but I haven't used them.

why better? I have a privacy issue with MS Windows after they integrated advertising into windows 10 and bought linkedin.

That said I like the object oriented nature of powershell. And Excel is amazing if you know what you are doing.
