    The best file archiver I've used on Linux. It supports almost all file formats, and it's fast and lightweight.

    Clean UI and seems much faster at unzipping too.

    Very fast & responsive. Well made. Easy to use. The interface looks good. Not bloated. Has "Smart extraction" feature so you save time not having to select whether or not to extract in a new folder. Supports reading archive files with different character encodings, such as ZIP files with Korean & Japanese characters. No subscription & free upgrades for perpetual license.
