  Wow, really shilling for Russian software man, that’s low, certainly the Russians have no insights to 7zip.

    You can read and build the source code yourself if you’re really worried what some Russian FOSS contributors are up to, but I can assure you it’s going to be a lot less sus that whatever a proprietary application can do without any ability to audit and check the code.

  7zip’s Linux port (p7zip) was lagging back in functionality last I heard, and also was abandoned then, don’t know how it is now.

    It has an official Linux port now, goes by 7zz

      why do I find nothing about that on the 7zip website, but I do find stuff about p7zip?

        7-zip.org/download.html contains Linux downloads and in them 7zz binaries.

        The front page with the p7zip link looks out of date.

      Ah. It’s not packaged in xbps which is why I didn’t know.
