Blows my mind that anyone still uses WinRAR when 7zip exists.

doesn't WinRAR do certain things that 7zip doesn't?

I can't think of what 7zip lacks, but I know it does lack some features

Afaik, the only thing 7Zip lacks in comparison to WinRAR is the ability to create rar files, and that's only because the format is proprietary.
