29 <p>Elvish has a clean design with none of the quirks of Bash. The only problem is that Elvish doesn't work. Elvish doesn't handle background processes properly as described <a href="https://github.com/elves/elvish/issues/307">here</a>. This means that if you open an Elvish shell, launch a GUI app from the command line, and later close the shell, then this kills the GUI app. That's pretty bad.</p> | 29 <p>Elvish has a clean design with none of the quirks of Bash.

31 <p>In general, no software written by modern programmers work properly. Modern programmers have no conscientiousness. They don't care about bugs and don't respond to user complaints. The background process problem was what made me give up on Elvish, but presumably there are other problems that I didn't encounter.</p> | 31 <p>In general, no software written by modern programmers work properly.
