The way I search on all my Windows devices is:

Install PowerToys.

Install Everything

Install Everything extension for PowerToys Search

Change PowerToys Search to open with Windows key and spacebar

Best search experience I’ve ever had on my Windows machines.

I use Flow Launcher with Everything and love it (both installed via Scoop btw)

the way i search on my linux machine currently is using dmenu.

It works, it's fine, does what i tell it to do. If i don't feel like typing for it i can add a launch keybind with a one liner to my WM environment. I have one for my terminal for example.
