One of them was qemu-system, the other was docker-cli because they were forcing me to use Docker-Desktop, which I would...

I have selected Fish to be my login shell, I'm afraid to log out :(
Something tells me Fish is not a capable login shell? It was in /etc/shells, but that does not mean it's a login shell right? Would any shell with job control be a login shell? I'm really scared to logout! Any help is appreciated....
