I like exa, but this is one big problem: ergonomics. "ls" is very easy to type, the two letters are on the middle row of the keyboad, where usually eight fingers lay when at rest.
On the contrary to type "exa" you are using only left hand and using keys on all the three rows of the keyboard.
This is preventing me to always use exa instead of ls.
Of course one can create an alias, but have you ever consider to change name?
Same thoughts here... it's not a dealbreaker, but something like lx would be much more muscle-memory-friendly without overwriting ls with an alias. If you'd rename the whole thing to lx I'd save one alias in my zsh-config.
Why not alias ls to exa?
