Are you talking about searching file contents?

Might check out something like ripgrep, but that's for searching code and other text-like files. Wont help you out with MS Word docs or anything like that.

I used to use google desktop search (!!!) back in the days, it even had a linux client. I'm aware of tracker (gnome built in) etc, I just didn't do my research yet :-)

rg I use hourly for code-related navigation & searches tho. Good stuff
