FiniteStateEntropy VS Onion

It's obsolete. It's limited to 32KB LZ window with huffman coding. Zstd can use a much larger window (8MB recommended) and a much better entropy coder: https://github.com/Cyan4973/FiniteStateEntropy

tANS block based : FSE

Sounds similar to: https://github.com/Cyan4973/FiniteStateEntropy

> The modern data compression is mainly based on two approaches to entropy coding: Huffman (HC) and arithmetic/range coding (AC). The former is much faster, but approximates probabilities with powers of 2, usually leading to relatively low compression rates. The latter uses nearly exact probabilities - easily approaching theoretical compression rate limit (Shannon entropy), but at cost of much larger computational cost.

I've also recently fallen into (reading/watching about) it, and from what I've seen, some of them have really impressive levels of community software support

e.g. https://onionui.github.io

OnionOS is your best choice. It's as simple as dropping the files onto your SD card. Then, moving your game files to their respective folders. Here is a video guide. Here is the official page with download and any information you would need. If you're still using the stock card, I'd highly recommend getting a better quality one so that you don't lose all your data again.

Download Onion OS to your computer. Onion OS is available from the link below: https://onionui.github.io/

Update PixelReader to v0.6 by @Aemiii91 in #1208

(Please note that I am using Onion OS V4.2.0-RC, if you are using other version, it may not work.

I followed the instructions from here and used the specialized software. It's a Samsung Pro Evo SD card bought in an official store and the reduction is completely reversible by using the Windows formatter. I don't really mind that much, but am wondering if I didn't noob myself out of twice as much space!
