Agree with Grant, not easy, but doable.
I migrated to nemo 42 days ago following this guide:
https://www.linuxuprising.com/2018/07/how-to-replace-nautilus-with-nemo-file.html

I must say I can't be more happy  :-)
Again things work as I would expect in a file explorer.
Typeahead works - but also the multi-tab that was dropped from nautilus some 
time ago - I missed that one too.
So, IMHO great decision.
I would love that ubuntu takes nemo as default.

These discussions are really weird, when the change can be easily solved
adding a flag in preferences, and the discussion get hot with your
community, not solving sounds like discussion evolved to ego issues.

Title:
  restore type-ahead find

Status in Nautilus:
  Expired
Status in nautilus package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in ubuntu-settings package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  GNOME removed type-ahead find in Nautilus 3.6, not without
  controversy:

  https://mail.gnome.org/archives/nautilus-
  list/2012-August/msg00002.html

  Now when you type in a Nautilus window, Nautilus immediately performs
  a search in the current directory and all its subdirectories.  I
  personally find this annoying.  If I want to search, I'll click the
  search icon.  Often I'm looking at a long directory listing and simply
  want to jump to a certain point in it, and type-ahead find works great
  for that.

  Would Ubuntu consider patching type-ahead find back in?
