I suppose maybe im the only person who still prefers good ole #MidnightCommander to other file managers but TIL mc has absolutely terrible handling extracting 7z files which has been my prefered backup format for the past could of years.

Something to do with extfs and the extraction command needing to run on each file rather then the archive as a whole.. I dont really understand it but the end result is that archives with lots of small files like .log or .jpgs will just slow to a crawl.

So i guess I’m going to switch back to Tarballs. My reason for using 7z originally was based on how it worked from command line. Its not like I can’t just manually extract the files, but if I’m using MC then i kind of expect a certain type of behavior.

Ah well
