I haven’t had a Mac in a few years but iirc they ship zsh* nowadays not bash


Mac never stopped shipping Bash. What they did was to no longer use it as the default interactive shell. Zsh is now the new default shell. As far as I know, Mac has never shipped with Fish.


Default shell is zsh. They ship old version pre-GPL3 bash. I just “brew install bash” and then change my user shell in the system preferences to point at it.


They ship a few shells, but the default is zsh these days.
