    I find myself using ctrl-r less and less as I make sure that anything of value that I work out goes into a Makefile or the app tooling, for me this is the basis of the dev-ops approach to work (make sure everything is scripted, not worked out on the fly).

      I’m lazy so With fish, I just type a part of the command and press up few times to get to where I want. There’s also fish-fzf.

        I've relied on this so much that I copy my entire history between machines...

          Self hosted Atuin would do this for you too. Unless you don't want the added tooling/complexity

            Ahh I only do this when reinstalling or moving to a new laptop but it's good to know about Atuin for the future!
