Brand new PEP by @emmatyping to add Zstandard to the standard library:
https://peps.python.org/pep-0784/
Will it make it in to 3.14 before the feature freeze on 2025-05-06? It'll be close but it's possible!
The PEP also suggests namespacing the other compression libraries lzma, bz2 and zlib, with a 10-year deprecation for the old names.
