I use .dev of course! I realize that .test is the sensible choice, but there's some odd WordPress/Serialization benefit to keeping the TLD length the same.
Google bought it up, and I've never seen it in the wild, so it works well for me.

And as WordPress work makes up a big portion of my paycheck I understand the serialization but haven't worried about it since moving to WP CLI everywhere and adding it to project scripts/automation.
wp search-replace 'someproject.dev' 'someproject.dev'
It'll handle serialization and you can even use it for quick import/export: wp export --add-drop-table db.sql
wp import db.sql
