Both formats, briefly
TARIN
A TAR file stacks many files into one without shrinking them, keeping Unix permissions, ownership and folder structure exactly as they were. On Linux that makes it the usual first step before a compressor such as gzip or xz runs over the result. Reach for plain TAR when you want a faithful bundle and will handle compression separately, or not at all.
TAR.LZMAOUT
TAR.LZMA pairs a TAR bundle with the original LZMA compressor, the ancestor of the XZ format used today. Compression is strong, but current tools write .tar.xz instead, so this ending mostly turns up on older files. Convert one when you want something modern software opens without argument.
Three steps, start to finish

Drag it onto the page, or pull it in from your computer, Google Drive or Dropbox.
TAR.LZMA is preselected
This page is already set to write TAR.LZMA. Switch the target if you change your mind.
Take the TAR.LZMA
Grab the result the moment the job clears. Your upload is wiped straight afterwards.
