I also agree with this. At present, I have confidence in zstd. There seems to be a trend that some programmer users are switching to zstd. Don't know if it will be popular among non-programmer users. If this happens in the future, what path will it take? > I feel like you making Zstd available on PyPI is wonderful, and a huge > service to the community. There was already a zstandard module on PyPI since 2016, but its API is different from bz2/lzma module. I intentionally didn't look at its implementation when implementing the module. https://pypi.org/project/zstandard/ _______________________________________________ Python-ideas mailing list -- python-ideas@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to python-ideas-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/python-ideas.python.org/ Message archived at https://mail.python.org/archives/list/python-ideas@python.org/message/MYREWZ4HN2QIAQK23C63B4V3HRLSK76C/ Code of Conduct: http://python.org/psf/codeofconduct/
