I mean , I use linux but I can use wine to run the content inside , so in some sense “every content” is cross platform. I think it ultimately adds to better performance specifically for executable torrents in the long run over things like zip.

yes I think it does indeed have better ratio than 7z with better speed , I think without the need of extraction.

Traditional file compression doesn’t work that well as compared to upx. Upx supports as much as 500 mb/s on any reasonable device (this is very comparable to github.com/mhx/dwarfs) , which is honestly insane.

What advantage does it have over existing methods? It’s great that it’s cross-platform, but so are zip files. And the content inside isn’t cross-platform, so I don’t think that ultimately adds anything.

It states that the more people use and report upx as non antivirus to windows , the better detection rate occurs. This software is open source y’all. Not sure why you all have got your pitchforks
