    I do NOT understand how zip is still the default. I use .tgz wherever I can.

      Compatibility with literally anything under the sun that can decompress a compressed file.

      Because of your comment, I did a quick google search and pretty much every source says that .tar.gz is also pretty ancient and not that good (from a compression point of view). For better compression, you can use the xz or 7zip formats. The former is more used on Linux, if that’s what you’re using.

      Yay this is now a URL. If your intention was not to post a URL to some random website not loading anything but javadscript, put a space inside

      “Example .com”

    tar just wraps, doesn’t compress. so more accurate would be the pillows in a looser bag that doesn’t squish them even a little :)
