    As someone who has daily driven Linux on all my devices for about 5 years now, I actually forgot that windows didn’t have built in rar, tar and 7zip support. Absolutely bonkers that it took them this long.

        They actually removed the old FTP support, it was somewhat still useful for local servers that didn’t have samba shares.

      To be fair, Windows now has better support than Gnome does natively. I wish they would finally give nautilus seamless archive integration…

        Watch as they break it even more. They broke drag and drop between archives and nautilus a while ago and it remains broken to this day.
