Why I Switched to ZST Compression

I recently started using ZST compression more often, and the reason is simple: it is fast. The comparison in the graphic shows it clearly. ZST is not the smallest archive format — 7Z usually wins there — but ZST is much faster when compressing and extracting files. In everyday use, that matters. ZIP is still useful because everyone can open it. But ZIP is mainly the compatibility format now. If I send files to someone and I do not know what system they use, ZIP is still the safe choice. https://medium.com/@chris.ahrweiler/why-i-switched-to-zst-compression-7c13907e12b5
