bazzite-cli isn't recognizing fish

I am trying to get the Bling enabled for the fish shell but the script seems to think I'm still running bash. It works flawlessly in bash but certain apps like zoxide don't appear to have the necessarily fish configs applied (zoxide init/
z
z
alias for example). I only kind of understand everything bazzite & ujust are doing under the hood, so I thought I should ask before breaking things.

What I've done:
* Run
ujust bazzite-cli
ujust bazzite-cli
while on bash (everything default after the initial OS installation)
-
enable
enable
, everything installed fine through homebrew.
* Changed shell to fish as per Best Shell Practices
- fish shell working as expected, some commands not so much.
* Run
ujust bazzite-cli
ujust bazzite-cli
while on fish. Script reports
Shell: bash
Shell: bash
. Tried
disable
disable
and then again with
enable
enable
. Still not picking up fish.

Any suggestions? 😄

Ahah. Solved my own problem, I think.

set SHELL /usr/bin/fish
set SHELL /usr/bin/fish

ujust bazzite-cli
ujust bazzite-cli
now correctly recognizes fish and sets appropriate configs. Great success.
