I can understand wanting your project to succeed, it's pretty natural and human, but it's flagrant Antonio had a lot of feels about the uptake of xz compared to lzip, as both are container formats around raw lzma data streams and lzip predates xz by 6 months. His complaint article about xz is literally one of the "Introductory links" of lzip.

Also do you mean back up?
Antonio literally used to go around mailing lists asking for lzip support and complaining about xz:
- https://gcc.gnu.org/legacy-ml/gcc/2017-06/msg00044.html
- https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2017/06/msg00433.html
