I've used GRIP before, but I've done most of my ripping in Windows.

I do enjoy being able to rip discs and do what I want with the files.  I still occasionally rip movies from blu-ray disc to put up on my Plex media server.  Recently I've been happy to see that there are Linux versions of some of the video transcoding tools I use (namely, Handbrake), though I haven't really checked for a Linux program that can rip blu-ray discs.  For ripping blu-ray discs, I tend to use MakeMKV these days, and that's only available for Windows and Mac OS X.  Perhaps it would run under Wine, but I haven't tried that.
