minus-squareSSTF@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·10 months agoI just get teased by my computer guy because I still use WinZip. Apparently that’s now considered “retro”. Ow my dignity.
minus-squaretubaruco@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·10 months agoif winzip is windows only, the cool new zip utility is stock windows explorer
minus-squarePersuader9421@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·10 months agoIt even supports .rar and .7z now
minus-squaretubaruco@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·10 months agooh thats good, that means everything will start using .7z because of how much better it is at compressing files, right? …right?
minus-squareSSTF@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-210 months agoApparently 7-Zip. I’ve never felt bother enough by WinZip to stay en vogue with the times I guess.
minus-squareWarmSoda@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·10 months ago7zip has been “the standard” for like twenty years
minus-squarezarkanian@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·10 months ago7-Zip is open source while WinZip is not. Also, 7-Zip’s native format, .7z, is superior to Zip.
