    The “zst” extension is used for files that are compressed with the ZSTD algorithm, usually you see them as “.tar.zst” files in the *nix world - tl;dr, they’re Linux ZIP files.

    As for how to open them on Windows or MacOS, idk.

      Ah learn something new every day. Good thing I’ve got I got linux on my laptop. Just never had a reason to use another archive format before and had only encountered the zip 7zip kinds.
