"I don't care about 0,1% better compression than other formats when there is absolutely no reliability whatsoever."
well sounds sane and just to me what you say but then tell me why do all the desktop like gnome not add Zstandard/zstd to their guis ?
but this is not only a linux problem on windows microsoft also only add .zip support why all OS are so crap in this meaning ?
i mean .zip is completely outdated and waste much space.
"i just don't want it shoved on my OS no more... Reverting to a "safe" version won't cut it for me in the long run"
i don't think a "Safe" version do hurt you... but again before you lobby to remove xz should be not first lobby to add zstd to gnome gui and other desktops ? i mean even windows and macos and andorid...
