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?

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The front page with the p7zip link looks out of date.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