idek if 7zip is better than winrar anymore assuming both are being updated constantly, but like... My memory is that pretty much every tech oriented person on windows uses 7zip.

      i prefer the 7z workflow of right clicking the archive then choosing one of the relevant 7-zip -> extract to ...

      it's unambiguous. i can either extract immediately in the same folder to a sub-directory, or choose another destination. 7-zip's UI is also very simple and straightforward. I would love if I could get 7-zip natively like this on Linux.

          You can look at the files and it will decompress them to access them like any other file. You can move one or all files out of the compressed folder to a decompressed state. I hate :windows-cool: and it's bullshit. I just have to use the thing for work and some email boxes aren't made like the others and some clients require compression because their organization cheaps out on file storage.

          I also hate the Apple propietary :anarchist-occult: cult. I'm not here to make converts.

          I'm using Android which is :penguin-dance:
