How good is zstd for long term archival vs e.g. 7z? The latter appears (I have no data to back it up) to be vastly more popular at the moment.

- usr1106 4y ago7z was popular in the Windows world when I still used that more than 10 years ago because Windows contained nothing reasonable. I have never really seen it in the Linux world. There are several alternatives installed in most distros, all except zstd discussed in the article.
