chain Fish commands via `&&` or `||`
In Bash/ZSH and other shells, I am used to using && and ||.
Is there any equivalent in Fish?

The logical operators you're used to, are supported since fish 3.0.0, released on 2018-12-28.
From the v3 release notes:
- fish now supports
&&(likeand),||(likeor), and!(likenot), for better migration from POSIX-compliant shells (#4620).

Fish doesn't have a special syntax for a logical AND (&&) or a logical OR (||).
Instead, you can use the commands and and or, which verify the previous command's exit status and act accordingly:
command1
and command2
command1
or command2
Furthermore – just like in bash – you can use a semicolon ; to execute two commands one after the other:
command1 ; command2
This allows using a more familiar syntax:
command1 ;and command2
command1 ;or command2
