There is an amazing plugin for Visual Studio that makes searching blindingly fast almost instantaneous and the price was $10 for the longest time (now $20) and trying to get developers to buy that thing was a chore. They didn't want to pay for any software tools. This is in the US not somewhere that $10 is a huge price and yet they balked. I have to ask why anybody who makes a living writing software is so repulsed by the idea of paying someone else for software especially something cheap and time saving.
Cause that's free in Linux and you kinda resent paying extra for something that should be built into something like visual studio. And now even vscode does it out of the box.
In Linux updatedb and locate are built in so you can do the search on terminal and it's instant so putting a gui over something like that should really be part of visual studio imo to begin with.
