7-zip 22.00 – APFS, Posix TAR, high precision timestamps
Looking back at this version history [1], there was perviously a gap of 3.5 years between releases (2011-2014). Skimming through the discussion forums, the 2.5yr gap between 19.00 and 21.07 was filled with a number of alpha and beta releases, eg 20.02 [2]. Version numbering seems to follow a consistent yy.## format since 2015.

And it's not like they're 60, they're twenty! I thought it was more known
Also, unlike WinRAR, 7zip is open-source. Code mirror here: https://github.com/kornelski/7z

7zip > winRAR change my mind
It's also open source.

How safe is 7Zip encryption?
AES is only as good as the KDF protecting the key. Looking at the github mirror of its code (updated march 2019), it seems to be using PBKDF2-SHA1 with 1,000 iterations. That's actually really bad because SHA1 is weak, and 1,000 iterations is very low.

Duplicity
I used this many, many years ago but switched to Borg[0] about five years ago. Duplicity required full backups with incremental deltas, which meant my backups ended up using too much disk space. Borg lets you prune older backups at will, because of chunk tracking and deduplication there is no such thing as an incremental backup.

What do you use for VPS backup? Would improved borg setup - pull mode - be enough? Or, do you use something else?
Currently, I'm auto-backing it up with borg (push mode) through wireguard tunnel to NAS behind ISP's CGNAT. The borg takes care of deduplication in SQL file, so incremental update (even in append-only mode) is very small for PostgreSQL dump.

Kopia: Open-Source, Fast and Secure Open-Source Backup Software
Borg 2 has been in development for nearly a year and a half [1] and may probably be released early next year, i.e., early 2024 (just a guess, seeing that even RC1 is not yet released and seems to have a lot of work to be done).
Does anyone know how Borg 1.x and 2 would compare to Kopia?

disc space is not freeing
You could use borgbackup.
- My deduplication solution written in Rust beats everything else: casync, borg...
