I use ripgrep all the time but I sometimes don't trust the results and I have been bitten too many times by heuristics it automatically uses to detect binary files and skip searching into those. These days I run ripgrep with alias `rg --color always --no-mmap -a` but still I think its binary file detection is wonky. I might be missing some relevant option but out of box - IMO grep is slower but always does what is told (and hence more reliable).
