> Biggest tip for fish switchers: set fish as your terminal's shell instead of changing your login shell.

That's an interesting idea - I will try that. This bit me recently when I used Migration Assistant to move from a Mac with Catalina to one with Big Sur; my login shell was still set to the path for fish installed via Homebrew, but none of those packages were copied over. I managed to hack around it by copying bash into that location so that I could reinstall Homebrew and fish to finish repairing things.

IMO it's worth it to avoid Relocated Items popping up after every update.
