Hello, Everyone. New Garuda user. Ok, new linux user 
I'm following a tutorial video about using anaconda for python. They went to the anaconda web site to download it, but I imagined using octopi was 'better' ? Does it matter?
Anyway, I got it installed well enough via konsole & fish shell but when i went to execute the conda command, it wasn't found. The video said if you have an error, run source ~/.bashrc
When I did, it complained about an equal sign not being valid in fish, suggesting that I use 'set' instead. So, i commented out the offending line and copied it with 'set' as a prefix.
ran source again, and it said no closure to an 'if' in the bashrc. I looked up and found that fish wants 'end' rather than 'fi', and started to change those, too.
But i'm now wondering whether this is what I'm supposed to be doing. I mean, if ever I decide to change my shell to bash or zsh, won't I have to undo what I'm doing now? That doesn't seem like I'm going about this the right way, so here I am to ask:
What's the right/better way for me to handle this situation? Should I just change my shell to bash? Or, is there a way to keep fish but still run bash scripts without having to edit them for differences?
Thanksin advance for your insights!
Oh, in order to be compliant with the forum rules, here's my garuda-inxi output:
