Agreed. In my experience fish just runs a heck of a lot faster than either zsh or bash as well as adding some features I love, like the command syntax highlighting and autocomplete. I couldn't see myself going back to either of those after using it for an extended period of time.

I tried it, then went back to bash. I'm not really sure why. I also tried zsh some time ago, then went back to bash. I rather like fish, it's a cool construct, and I can appreciate its features. But somehow I found that I didn't really gain anything from them, so I went back to bash. I honestly admit I'm not sure why -- fish is really cool, and zsh is really cool, but I didn't adapt the new features to my day to day usage.
