Improved version of 7-Zip with extra features and compression codecs

Fork of 7-Zip with support for Zstandard. Usefull because some developers decided that it's a good idea to compress their software with a compression algorithm by facebook (facecrap), and sometimes I need to open those archives. Gave it only 4 stars because it's not a drop-in replacement for 7-Zip, and some of the default compression settings were changed.

If this fork will add more features and be more drop-in replacements, I'll switch to it and rate it 5 stars.

phant's software list

my software list, mostly open-source.I have used the vast majority of the software listed there myself for a long time. This software list open-source/free/freemium apps for Windows 10/11 that I would recommend.This also includes tools for CS/EE background developer. This list is designed to highlight excellent software in a particular area, so you don’t need to install all the software on the list. You should only consider installing the software I’ve selected when you have a need that falls under a specific section of the list.
