As a long-time Linux user, I've tried several GUI archive tools, but Xarchiver has become my go-to. It's incredibly lightweight and snappy, handling everyday tasks like opening ZIPs or RARs without any fuss. The interface is straightforward and doesn't get in the way, which is exactly what I want.

Xarchiver handles all my basic archiving needs like creating ZIPs and extracting RARs, which is great for a free, lightweight tool. However, its interface feels very old and clunky compared to modern alternatives, and I've had a few issues with password-protected archives not working consistently. It's reliable for everyday tasks, but don't expect any fancy features.
