is bricking systems really an issue/a common issue for common mutable Linux distros?

It would have been quite the surprise if they had 6 recommendations but their favorite was not amongst them.

I’m usually not using bash locally, and remotely don’t change the prompt, but Starship works in bash too.

I use Nushell with Starship (cross platform prompt) in Windows Terminal.

nu ❯                                  took 52ms

Path above prompt, prompt with shell name and a character, and on the right side how long the previous command took. The Character changes color from green to red when the last command exited with a non-0/-success exit code.

In a git repo folder it shows git info too - the branch symbol won’t show here because here is not a nerd font with symbols; I’ll add a screenshot:

C:\dev\dotnet\meercat-monitor on  main [?]
nu ❯                                                                took 1ms 

Starship can show a bunch of status/state information for various tools, package managers, docker, etc.

I wouldn’t show my PROMPT_COMMAND, but it’s a nu closure so not really comparable to bash. But as I said, Starship works with Bash too.
