Sophia June TurnerWrote up my thoughts on why #nushell matters. And yes, they get a bit spicy 😅
Bill Mill@jntrnr I went in to try it again, and nushell doesn't support the way that I do config, which is a blocker for me:

https://github.com/nushell/nushell/issues/893
Why in the world did the team decide to reject a user's choice of where the config should live? The PR gives no reasoning at all.

@jntrnr to expand a bit: an important part of shell config for me is that I can bring it between several computers on several operating systems; to do so I keep it in source control and in `~/.config`. (A few programs only support the root `~``, which isn't great but I live with it.)
nushell choosing to use only OS-specific directories means that I can't use my normal config system to move between OSes without adding significant complexity to my config system.
