Fish is a nice and decent shell.
But if I made the switch I had to unlearn && and have to give up niceties like !-3.
At that point, I was done with fish. It's not fish's fault, but I am too lazy 😎
As in any modern shell, the Up arrow, ↑ recalls whole lines, starting from the last line executed. A single press replaces "!!", later presses replace "!-3" and the like.
If the line you want is far back in the history, type any part of the line and then press Up one or more times. This will constrain the recall to lines that include this text, and you will get to the line you want much faster. This replaces "!vi", "!?bar.c" and the like.

Fish docs
Thank you for your kind advice and hint to the docs.
No problem! I should thank you because I didn't know about !-3 before reading your comment. I was just sharing my findings :D
The equivalent of
&&is; and. However, for!-3, I never use that anyway, so I'm not sure what the equivalent is :D; breaks if the call on the left ends with error?
Then it's simply "; or" instead of "; and" in fish.
