[Enhancement] Add support for zstd #298

Closed kallisti5 closed 2 years ago

kallisti5 commented 2 years ago

zstd is becoming a popular standard for compression, any plans to add it?

@kallisti5 flate2 is specifically a crate for the DEFLATE/zlib/gzip format. I don't think it makes sense to add zstd support to it. There are already multiple crates for zstd, including https://crates.io/crates/zstd and https://github.com/Nemo157/async-compression/ .

That's fair @joshtriplett Thanks for clarifying!
