    I agree it’s not as limitless as Linux, but there’s plenty of room for advanced users.

    I’ve never needed to use a newer version of Bash. What is an example of something one couldn’t do with Bash 3 or zsh?

      I get that this is an Apples to Oranges comparison, but Powershell 7 is way easier to use than the default Windows Powershell because of autocomplete. I imagine that newer versions of Bash have made improvements that are similarly powerful.

        Oh, gotcha. I thought you were talking about limitations, not features. My misunderstanding.

      It’s not so much a problem of there being things you “can’t do” in other shells or older Bash, as that it breaks existing shell scripts, which is frustrating.
