cool people use zst

(actually decreases decompression time by 1300%)

You can't decrease something by more than 100% without going negative. I'm assuming this doesn't actually decompress files before you tell it to.

Does this actually decompress in 1/13th the time?

Yeah, Facebook!

Sucks but yes that tool is damn awesome.

Meta also works with CentOS Stream at their Hyperscale variant.

Makes sense. There are actual programmers working at facebook. Programmers want good tools and functionality. They also just want to make good/cool/fun products. I mean, check out this interview with a programmer from pornhub. The poor dude still has to use jquery, but is passionate to make the best product they can, like everone in programming.
