You didn't specify the Postgres version - that matters, because older
pg_dump versions (before PG 16) do not support compression. Since PG 16
you can use either -Fc or -Fd (instead of the tar format), and it'll
compress the output using gzip.
Not true. pg_dump has had built-in gzipping of directory format backups since at least 9.6. Probably earlier.
