Re: "Curious what other OpenBSD users use as their main shell?"

Comment in: s/OpenBSD

I didn't know ksh really had people using it anymore. It was advanced for its time but seems like kind of an oddball now. Of course, FreeBSD defaults to tcsh, so I'm not one to talk lol. I figured some people would use zsh out of personal preference/choice. I guess the cool shell is fish now

@benk thanks for the input. I'm kinda surprised to be honest that more OpenBSD users aren't sticking with the default ksh. I guess it depends on their use case and most people are just answering from a server/desktop perspective. I wonder if folks are more inclinded to stick to defaults on routers, firewallls etc...
