What ever happened to WinZip?
>>
inferior compression.
.zip lost to .rar which lost to.7z

That is a cool looking logo

.7z doesn't support all features of .rar tho. The compression is the only thing .7z is better at.

what do you think of this logo?
>>
>>108891884
Windows added native zip support, so it was no longer needed
>>
>>108891919
I wouldn't say it was compression, it was mostly because winrar had support for a lot more file types.

7z never really took off because winrar could use the file type, and obviously nobody wanted to use something made by russians.

RAR is Russian. 7zip GUI just feels annoying.

>>108892373
A better icon

It's still around in corporate world, and still a bloated slow piece of shit.

Francis Bellard (TinyC, QEMU, FFMPEG, ... )'s nncp is destroying 7zip but very slow.

.rar didn't lose to .7z, it's still superior for gigantic files and the compression most commonly used by pirates
