I also use ag for years. Recently I tried to use rg and found it is even faster than ag. Few times I compared results and somehow ag skipped few files but rg found matches.

My reflexes are still to type ag but I already want to switch to rg.

alias ag="rg" is what I've just started doing. Both tools are great, but rg is just better and faster, while also not missing anything that ag has (at least from my own experience).
