Fsearch, a fast file search utility for Unix-like systems
Hi, author here.
Likely the most significant benefit is the more powerful query language. For example you can also search by file modification date or size and use boolean operators. https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch/wiki/Search-syntax

Bfs 3.0: The Fastest Find Yet
Yes, FSearch is the one I use, but it's not as great, per FSearch's dev:
> However, FSearch doesn't automatically detect changes made to the file system and update its index then. This is on the roadmap (it's called inotify support) but it'll never work as smooth as Everything on Windows, because the Linux kernel isn't particularly good at reporting filesystem changes
https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch/issues/26
Everything is comprehensive + instant + always up-to-date, that's so awesome a combo it's a pity it's Windows only

How and why am I seeing files that I have no access to?
One other program I've been particularly enjoying recently is fsearch : https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch

baloo is using 36 GB space, is that normal?
If you don't need content indexing, Fsearch is an alternative. I've been using it for over a year now and it's been working flawlessly. Results are near instant and the db is in single digit megabytes.

Does Linux have an equivalent of MFT on NTFS in Windows?
But AFAIK nothing seems to use this, def not fsearch, they have an open issue - https://github.com/cboxdoerfer/fsearch/issues/26

Name the tools you can't live without!
Still remember those days of arguing on /g/ where linux longbeards stallman fanboys tried to say how this or that tool was good search... but I dont want to just find something, I want to use it that second, and I want the entire system indexed... after getting some webms to showcase that instant feel it got the message across, though later someone appeared with some dmenu trickery being similarly fast and useful... anyway Fsearch that appeared soon after me is the real deal.

What is a program that you use that's uncommon but essential for you?
Another example on how the modules matter more than pont itself. On it's own it has 0 context on what XDG folder locations are, but I have an xdg module (https://github.com/AlexAegis/dotfiles/tree/master/modules/xdg) that has an environmental file in ~/.config/environment.d listing my XDG config (which is pretty much the default but that doesnt matter) And a named, environment script. These environment scripts are always run, no matter what. And I'm using them to source environmental variables, so if ANOTHER module is dependent on xdg because I'm using these variables, it doesnt matter if my environment has these variables or not, pont will load them, from there.
What are some alternatives?
