[solved] Can't get starship to work

I installed starship and want it to work on kitty, I am using oh-my-zsh also.
Here are my configs:

kitty:
http://ix.io/44rV

zshrc:
http://ix.io/44rU

starship.toml:
http://ix.io/44rW

My terminal just shows the default prompt, my starship config is correct as I used the same config before with zsh and kitty.

Don't use oh-my-zsh, it's a broken mess.

Mod note: not an installation issue, moving to NC.

It might not be 'the' problem but it's still 'a' problem. Configure your shell properly.

Then what is omz alternative?

zsh -- set up by hand.
bash -- perhaps with extensions such as autocomplete
fish
tcsh
sh

Edit: Or, to be truly esoteric, xonsh

You seem to be ricing your installation without having basic knowledge. What's wrong with Bash for your use case?

I would suggest taking a step back and keeping things simple.

Ok so I uninstalled omz but still my starship isn't loading, it even reads the correct starship.toml config I just don't understand why it won't load : ?(

Re: [solved] Can't get starship to work

Also eval "$(starship init zsh)" outputs nothing when run in zsh session
When it should output the prompt

Re: [solved] Can't get starship to work

solved by adding prompt off before eval statement
