Android still doesn't support many compression types

When w11 announced that they were adding native support for rar, 7z, etc, it occurred to me that android also doesn't support these and I found it really weird

I keep pondering why Android has blobs for CIFS/SMB but not NFS, too.

Still haven't found a legit reason why.

Because Windows is omnipresent and every NAS comes with SMB support out of the box.

NFS is shit anyway. It has no proper security unless you want to set up something like Kerberos (a major PITA)

Yeah no doubt, and that's why I like Tailscale.

I just map all users Tailnet visitors to guest, and give me r/w and all others r/o.

Bugs me though that they could include it, with big red flashy warnings like you get enabling USB debugging.
