I use Atuin and like it a lot, and sync history across hosts.

However, the fuzzy search in Atuin is worse than fzf, which was a downgrade. It just has less effective heuristics/scoring, e.g. it might find the individual letters of a short command scattered in a command that had a long base64 input or something.

You can use ' to do exact match, like 'docker

Yes, I rely heavily on ^ and ' in antuin, though that's partly to workaround the relatively poor fuzzy search (in fzf I never even needed those).
it's worth noting that atuin is now available in debian testing/trixie, so it will eventually be an apt install away for new stable installs.
