Recently I got really interested in debloating and hardening my operating systems, cause I’m heavily inspired by Unix and “worse is better” philosophy. As I heard bash is heavy and we have much more lightweight and faster alternatives like these mentioned in title. They must be great alternative for scripting and interpreting but is there any reason to use them on my machines as interactive shell? Anyone are using them? Also is it worth to learn them as bash is standard IT industry?


I could imagine an it would matter more to people working with embedded devices.
Also some people just like learning or doing random things. Nothing wrong with some exploration, discovery or learning.
That’s why I’m asking that question :) A lot of discussions are on Reddit and I hate Reddit so to avoid using it I’m asking here.
