Ask HN: Modern PAR2 Alternatives?

by sstephant on 12/14/20, 5:55 PM with 2 comments

I'm looking for a robust archive file format for long term storage. My first thought was PAR2, I was using Quick Par back in the days. But it seems there's not much activity on the tooling. So my question, maybe there are more modern alternatives?

    Unfortunately not, last I looked for it.

    Maybe PyFileFixity is good enough for you?

    I would love a stand-alone binary (a tool written in Go?) though.
