But isn't that's given with tgz too?
Except of course Windows iirc
Yep, but Windows is still the majority right now... And i'm sure there are a lot of people out there that don't have 7zip installed (why doesn't MS include their own implementation already ?)
They do but its useless. Winrar can handle .tar.* too
And this is the problem imo. If you NEVER change a thing you will never improve
Good luck teaching that to people who only use a computer to browse Facebook.
Not saying it's impossible, but it takes time
Do these even need zips?
Windows, Android, iOS do not open them by default.
You can do it on iOS using Siri Shortcuts.
I don't get how they add all these formats to Shortcuts but only Zip into the file app...
