    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™.

      Eh? ‘tar xvf foo.tar.gz’ is technically 2 steps I guess, but that’s pretty well hidden from the user.
