I use Emacs and ripgrep with the deadgrep plugin[0]. Emacs does have the `rgrep` command but the plugin presents a nicer interface. With no Emacs, I use `ripgrep` (sometimes with fd for the file candidates) and `less`.

I only bother with LSP for projects I'm currently working on. Even then, I sometimes use `project-find-regexp` for whole codebase search.

In Vim, I had the fzf plugin[1] with the command `:RG` bound to <leader>fg.
