I used to use oh-my-zsh and never really understood it. Turns out what I mostly wanted was `zsh-autosuggestions` and `zsh-syntax-highlighting` plugins, plus some sane history settings [0]. I've been oh-my-zsh-free for three months, my computers are now less cluttered and more straightforward.

I also uninstalled it pretty quickly after having tried it. Additionally, I use powerline, fzf, and easy-motion in zsh though.
