>It was faster to rg to search files

This continuously drives me crazy on Windows and macOS. I am befuddled at the number of times where I'm searching for a top level subdirectory that starts with 'foo' but the search bar spins and spins..

Eventually I get fed up and just sort by name and perform an alphabetical visual search in meat-space.
