Ludovic :Firefox: :FreeBSD:@nixCraft ish would be nice too
Josh Soref@nixCraft aww, what about dash, ash, ksh, tcsh, csh, psh (PowerShell), and BusyBox?
Dentaku (Thomas Renger)@nixCraft Both, haven't decided yet.
Alan Hicks@nixCraft tcsh and Bourne shell for scripts.

@nixCraft I also used to use mksh for a while, because it’s really minimal, but in the end I came back to zsh for it’s features.

Nowadays, zsh at work, bash at home. I suppose I'm just living with defaults though.

Schnouki@nixCraft Moved to fish a while ago. When it's not an option, I revert to my old zsh config, but I'm not happy about it.

Lacouture@nixCraft bash is default on most, so I have likely used it more.

okapi@berkes @nixCraft even in raw unconfigured form you still get many nice interactive features. Proper mulitline editing, more complete vi/emacs editing. Many more just need one setopt to enable like =command expansions. And the two lines to run compinit enables decent tab completion for many commands. It has always been more powerful and is best when configured manually rather than with big frameworks.

(a) You forgot tcsh. Where I work, the electronics-design team uses tcsh for some reason.
(b) I use bash on Linux, and zsh on my Mac. At work the collaboration uses bash, but for home use I prefer the customizability of zsh.
My point is: You may wish to expand or rephrase your poll if you wish to get more complete results.

Stephen Greenham@nixCraft Bash, but OSX seems to be forcing zsh more and more now.

I can use zsh fine on Kali, but twice I tried to switch to it on Ubuntu and failed miserably

Hitalo@nixCraft I use zsh with plug-ins that help me to be more practical in Terminal.

Resuna@nixCraft You're trolling csh users, aren't you?

Tried other shells but I always return back to bash. It's a pretty good shell.
I do use BusyBox on embedded devices or Alpine Linux though because they're very lightweight.
