I have never used Winrar from the moment I knew about 7-zip.

Same here. I started with WinZip back in the day. Later moved to WinRar and then to 7zip since I find it to be superior. Though I moved to 7zip fork NanaZip in Windows 11 which is the same thing except for some additional features.
7zip also supports MOTW for all archive formats (not default settings) which is very important for Microsoft Defender users and also helps in the case of Avast CyberCapture and ESET LiveGuard.
With 7zip/NanaZip I also get a file hash calculator built-in which I use a lot.

Yes, I still use it just for its icon. It used to be an icon that quickly distinguishes compressed files

This might be interesting for those who use 7-zip
