Ha, funny thing, I bought it yesterday.

Why? 7zip is just better. Also .7z is the superior compression algorithm

Pleeease just use zip. Different compression algorithms just lead to headaches and honestly who cares which is better, use the standard. Everyone can open zip files. Don't send your stuff as a .rar, .7z or .tar.gz.

I'm too lazy to check, so how much is it? Is it a one-time purchase or a subscription?

[–] TalesFromTheKitchen@lemmy.ml 5 points 11 months ago

Onetime for around 30 bucks. Yeah, 7zip is free and I used that but I had to repair a corrupted rar archive. It worked and I was thankful for that so I bought it.
