Both formats, briefly

ZIP

ZIPIN

Windows, macOS and Linux all open ZIP files with no extra software, which is why it stays the default for sending a folder to someone. Compression is moderate and unpacking is quick. Pick ZIP when you care more about the other person being able to open the file than about squeezing out every last megabyte.

TAR.

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.
