The Spotlight-esque tool in PowerToys - PowerToys Run - is unbelieeeeeeeevably slow compared to other things I've used. I've been trying it for a couple months now and it feels really clunky and awkward. Previously I was using the excellent (and open source) Launchy[0] which I simply loved but it hasn't been updated for a while and isn't so great on high DPI monitors and has a few quirks (there are some forks which are more recently updated).

I know there are other alternatives that are apparently much better (another poster mentioned Keypirinha and Fluent Search, both of which look great but not OSS), but I really hope they keep tweaking PowerToys Run to try to make it a little nicer.
