- It frees you from writing the wrapper (duh) - It probably have more niceties than a 5min wrapper (color, friendly defaults, etc.) I've personally used a homemade find wrapper for years, but have now replaced it with `fd` (another find reimplementation). The advantages isn't huge, but I find the niceties I never bothered implementing - well - nice :) That being said: I did get burned by the default behavior of ignoring hidden files :D Would've been nice if it by default didn't show hidden matches, but printed on stderr - something like: $ fd thing foo/something ... >searching hidden files - ^C to abort< >hidden files found (29) - use `--hidden` to show<
