About TAR.ZST
A .tar.zst is a TAR archive compressed with Zstandard, a modern algorithm that compresses about as well as gzip or better and is much faster. Arch Linux ships its packages this way, and container tools and backup software use it increasingly.
TAR.ZST is recent and many desktop archive tools cannot open it. TAR.ZST is fast to create and to unpack.
