well, POSIX is just a standard for how UNIX-like operating systems (e.g. linux) should work. i'm assuming you mean a POSIX-compliant shell.

the reason you might want to use a POSIX-compliant shell is that those shells are mostly compatible with each other, meaning a script written in BASH is (mostly) compatible with a system running ZSH, and vice-versa.

if you choose to use a non-compliant shell, some scripts might not work correctly. for example, though "set -x VISUAL nvim" works in FISH, it won't work on BASH. although, most scripts include a "shebang" line that overrides the user's shell and chooses to run the script in a different one (e.g. BASH).

the reason you might choose a non-compliant shell is usually just out of convenience. FISH has built-in suggestions, completions, and highlights that don't use many resources (the same setup in ZSH would require multiple extensions that slow down the shell). FISH also has different syntax that you might find more intuitive than the POSIX shells. basically it's just a matter of whether you want convenience or compatibility.

Wanna ask the experts what exactly is the use of a POSIX in modern Linux. Is it just for scripting? Or are there other reasons to use it?

What's better than this!! Just good old 2014 classic hate mail! No deep psychological incitement of my character, no scathing takedown of my art or work or body or whatever. Just big, grand general statements, one after the other. Boom boom boom.

nice try you're still posix compliant

shout out to everyone who uses a non POSIX compliant shell as their default system shell. living on the edge

I was about to make a post complaining about the anti-systemd circlejerk brigade but then I realized that I have never actually used a non-systemd distro lmao. maybe I should give artix a go before giving my opinion

Auto suggestions, auto complete, syntax highlighting, robust prompts with Git status info

so everything fish does automatically, but a worse implementation with extra steps
