  • Yes. But p10k has many downsides:

    • requires using oh my ZSH, which alone is quite bad because of how much slower it makes the shell.
    • is a piece of software you’ll have to either install on each new device or have the software in your dotfiles. Bad practice. I very much prefer having no additional dependencies or overhead, plus the way I do it I can do whatever I want without the limitations of a prompt made by someone else, for which I’d have to dig in a lot of documentation. Compared to this, I only spent half an hour making a prompt exactly how I like, which doesn’t add overhead and doesn’t require a third party piece of software which I’d have to install on every new device.
