Just use 7-Zip
if you’re on Windows use NanaZip. 7Zip refuses to use modern compression and encryption algorithms or integrate with the new Windows APIs. NanaZip is a fork that does just that.
Windows?! What?!
7-zip doesn’t exist on Linux. p7zip does, which hasn’t been updated since 2016
EDIT: It does, I stand corrected
Not only it does exist, but it’s also in official repos.

Latest release is a touch old (2022) and it’s not the most active repo ever. Hopefully its not dying.
Well at least someone’s gonna make money from WinRAR users
“Embrace
tar.gz7zip, son!”Why is there rarely a mention of 7zip?
It’s what we get for not buying it XD
the only reason anyone still uses this shit is ignorance
For me it’s laziness.
I bought a lifetime license literally more than 20 years ago to support the developer. I use 7Zip for most stuff but prefer WinRAR for split rar archive support.
That’s, quite ironically, a pretty ignorant opinion. There are areas where WinRAR is stronger than 7zip.

PeaZip is GOAT software. Truly amazing.
How does it compare to 7-Zip?
It support zip, rar, 7z. Basically all archive formats. It has way better UI. It is open source. It is free in beer.
It is open source. It is free in beer.
It is free as in speech. Your phrase refers to proprietary yet no cost software.
Free as in freedom is not a big argument for most people. But as in beer 😏

This!
I used winrar at first, but never truly trusted 7zip. Didn’t like the way it looked. Then first time I learned about ninite, I saw peazip and never looked back.
With the soon to be supported .rar on windows 11 I might do away with it but I feel peazip works faster.
It’s been like at least 5 years since I’ve seen a rar file.
Welp. Good thing I never bought it haha.
Zstd go brrr
using WinRAR
And that’s how I know that voting should be a privilege, not a right.
You’re so dramatic
Truth is dramatic.
Prolific man, so true
