I unironically used xz for a long time. It was just eazy and all around very good compress. A close second is 7zip because I used it on windows for years.

most of the things i want to send around my network in archives are already compressed binary files, so i just tar everything.

I still wonder what that's like. Somebody must still occasionally get a notification that SOMEWHERE somebody paid for their WinRAR license and is like "WOAH WE GOT ANOTHER ONE!"

Never looked back since 7z though. :D
