Sure, but zstd soundly beats gzip on every single metric except ubiquity, it is just straight up a better compression/decompression strategy.

It's pretty impressive how fast zstd has risen and been integrated into just about everything. It's already part of most browsers for compression. Brotli took a lot longer to get integrated even though it's better than gzip as well (but not as good as zstd).
