It's like when .zip was popular I guess?
Tar.gz is a two step thingy too (maybe under the hood 7z is too) so the extraction process always seems long?
Pro tip: Tar knows what to do if you try to untar a tar.gz file. It Just Works(tm).
So do zip files lol
Yes but can winzip do tape backups.
What do you use tape backups for?
Nirvana bootlegs.
Yeah I know, and it's only useful rarely as if you can extract directly to the target, you don't need to have an intermediate copy (or do intermediate copying). Really nitpicking ofc.
Eh? 'tar xvf foo.tar.gz' is technically 2 steps I guess, but that's pretty well hidden from the user.
