    If you want bash features instead of zsh feature why use zsh at all? exec bash or for a stronger fix chsh /bin/bash Commented Jul 13 at 16:29

    I realize my question may look like I have no love for ZSH. But it gives me mostly awesome autocomplete (although my point #4 shows I don't understand it fully yet) and BASH never gave me that. And I also trust that there must be a reason for many people (including devs of Plasma) saying ZSH is a better, modern alternative to BASH. So I decided I'd like to see it in action, learn to use it… because no sooner than that can I say whether it really is, or is not, better for me. I chose pain and I'm asking the question to elevate the pain a bit more easily—I hope you understand my motivation, now. Commented Jul 13 at 17:07
