 Specify Compression Algorithms
 ------------------------------
 
 You can enable compression for the connection to your MongoDB instance
-by specifying the algorithms in one of two ways: adding the parameter to your
-connection string using ``ConnectionString`` or by calling the method in the
-``MongoClientSettings.Builder`` class.
-
-.. tabs::
+by specifying the algorithms in one of the following ways: 
 
-   .. tab:: ConnectionString
-      :tabid: connectionstring
-
-      To enable compression using the `ConnectionString <{+api+}/apidocs/mongodb-driver-core/com/mongodb/ConnectionString.html>`__,
-      add the parameter ``compressors`` in the connection string passed to
-      ``MongoClients.create()``. You can specify one or more compression
-      algorithms, separating them with commas:
+- Use the ``compressors`` parameter in your connection string.
+- Chain the ``compressorList()`` method to the ``MongoClientSettings.builder()`` method.
 
-      .. code-block:: java
+This example shows how to specify the Snappy, Zstandard, and Zlib compression
+algorithms. Select the :guilabel:`Connection String` or :guilabel:`MongoClientSettings`
+tab to see the corresponding syntax:

 Compression Algorithm Dependencies
 ----------------------------------
 
-The JDK supports `Zlib <https://zlib.net/>`__ compression natively, but
-`Snappy <https://google.github.io/snappy/>`__ and
-`Zstandard <https://github.com/facebook/zstd/>`__ depend on open source
-implementations. See
