Damn, I was just looking into and learning about the different main compression (gzip, bzip, xz) algorithms the other week. I guess this is why you stick to the ol’ reliable gzip even if it’s not the most space efficient.

Genuinely crazy to read that a library this big would be intentionally sabotaged. Curious if xz can ever win back trust…

Can anyone help me understand xz vs Zstd?
