Because of your comment, I did a quick google search and pretty much every source says that .tar.gz is also pretty ancient and not that good (from a compression point of view). For better compression, you can use the xz or 7zip formats. The former is more used on Linux, if that's what you're using.
Lzo or lzma is best for compression. Also depends on the compression rate. KDE Ark is awesome
Nono, z-standard is where it's at
