   * VSCode's remote SSH extension (as of 2025-02-10) [[https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-remote-release/issues/2509|does not play well]] with a default Fish shell on the remote side. Either modify the way ''.bashrc'' checks whether to activate the Fish shell, or on the client side VSCode set ''remote.SSH.useLocalServer = false'' in the workspace configuration.
+  * Installing fish on old OpenSUSE might be a bit difficult (fish:v2.7.1).
+    * First to resolve is the automated web browser opening requirement, which can be disabled by commenting out the ''webbrowser.open'' line in **/usr/share/fish/tools/web_config/webconfig.py**.
+    * Extract the localhost path stored in **/root/.cache/fish/web_config-*.html**, then forward the default :8000 port and use the web config.
+    * Prompt may fail when using the web config. Insert it manually at **.config/fish/functions/fish_prompt.fish**. A simple I like, using the interactive prompt as base and substituting the ''$PWD'' for ''(prompt_pwd)''
