2026-03-31 10:47:40 <veltas      > You can make a .zip with the latest compression algorithms and it will still open with the oldest and crappiest .zip extraction programs, because the format's still the same
2026-03-31 10:47:46 <veltas      > But the .zip can still be a lot smaller
2026-03-31 11:19:57 <kotorifan   > Zip is the email of compression algorithms, in the sense that it is too wide spread to ever experience any kind of change ever again.

2026-03-31 18:45:55 <iv4nshm4k0v > The container format might be the same, but for the program to actually unpack anything from a .zip file, it must implement the decompression algorithm for the compression used.  ISO/IEC 21320-1:2015 only requires support for STORE (code 0) and DEFLATE (code 8) compression, and a .zip file containing anything else (bzip2, lzma, zstd - whatever) would not conform to that standard.
