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.
I do NOT understand how zip is still the default. I use .tgz wherever I can.

Compatibility with literally anything under the sun that can decompress a compressed file.
But isn’t that’s given with tgz too?
Except of course Windows iirc
Windows, Android, iOS do not open them by default.
You can do it on iOS using Siri Shortcuts.
I don’t get how they add all these formats to Shortcuts but only Zip into the file app…
