The fuzzy search ui bound to up is more convenient than history | grep ...

I just hava a zsh binding for using fzf to doing a fuzzy search of my history. The fzf package actually includes the implementation of the zsh "widget".

  • That's probably essentially the same thing, atuin being sqlite based is possibly faster but its not likely to matter until you reach a very very large history.

    • The main difference otherwise is that Atuin stores much more data + syncs it

      We shelled out to fzf in the very early days, but found the initial indexing to be a bit slower + add latency vs SQLite
