Add this one to my list of command line tools that Rust has improved to the point where I consider it noteworthy: (ie not just Rust for the sake of being written in Rust; must be materially better)

- htop

- ripgrep

- fd

- tealdeer

- dog

Eventually some of those tools, being universally useful, should be installed by distros by default. I think rg and fd are great candidates (the fact that grep and find exists isn't an impediment; unix traditionally had sed and awk alongside grep)
