Use a shell with decent auto-completion. I have not been irritated by this in years.

Won’t autocomplete fail if you do “cd d” and then try the autocomplete?

Or is that what you mean by “decent” auto-completion?

bash’s autocomplete fails (at least with default settings), but e.g. zsh can figure out what you mean

Not with a decent autocomplete. It will look for a folder starting with a small d and if it doesn’t exist it looks at a folder with a large D.

The choice of the letter d was brilliant, that’s for sure. Now I’m imagining a folder with a large D.

No, it will probably go to “Documents”, and if you hit tab again it should go to “Downloads”. (Assuming you have the normal default folders)

What shell would you recommend? 🤔

I use fish which is quite nice OOTB, although if you want a posix compliant shell, zsh with some plugins is also great.
