add bzip2/xz compression support for backups
Would be nice to have the option to choose other compression formats for backups, especially bzip2 or xz. To reduce compression time, parallel implementations can be used (pbzip2 and pxz). Additionally there should be an option to set compression level (1-9).

Yes, and ENCRYPTION! It's a disgrace there is no encryption in 2020. Using cloud services like GDrive, Amazon, etc. for unencrypted backups having personal data in them is even a crime according to GDPR.
