Yes I'll agree with the people who say that this isn't a drop in replacement (fewer features and different syntax) but I also just don't care. fd's defaults are brilliantly simple and just plain make sense. Yes I can use find but I always, always end up looking up an example. fd was simple enough that I very quickly figured it out by trial and error. And it really is fast.

Thank you sharkdp -- really nicely done. Appreciated.
