> bash is FAR slower than PowerShell, and it's interpreted.

That's not true at all

I have a demonstration that's very telling:

    time pwsh

    time bash

Post your result

It's sad that nowadays people do not understand the purpose of a shell

This really sounds like shell gatekeeping touching on the no true Scotsman fallacy.

The purpose of the shell, to me, is to

1. Remote management/system administration. 2. Application execution 3. Data modification in situ

And powershell does all 3 for me.

Lastly just typing bash/pwsh is a useless benchmark as I can make both run at wildly different speeds (bash .profile modification and pwsh -noprofile loading)

I never said you should not use it, i'm not gatekeeping

I only state a fact, you pick what you want that empowers you to do great things

But i'm not going to ignore wrong claims, it lowers the standard of quality we should expect from the tools we create, share and use
