Windows?! What?!

7-zip doesn’t exist on Linux. p7zip does, which hasn’t been updated since 2016

EDIT: It does, I stand corrected

7zip does exist on Linux:

https://www.7-zip.org/download.html

p7zip itself is out of date but updated forks exist. With 7zip having an up to date official version though there's no point to it.

Lol, just noticed that not only it is already installed on my system (never used it), but it also comes with a benchmark built in.

Not only it does exist, but it's also in official repos.
