I wanted to try zstd for a rust based application running as on Android. The cross-compilation and integration left me in pain and I am stuck with `zlib` which is also great IMHO.

I'll note that zlib and gzip are approximately the same, with the same algorithm under the hood (`deflate`) but different framing. But if it's working well for your use-case, that's all that really matters - especially over having to deal with C interop.
