No one make such file these days.
Lol. You posted this while I was making it: compression, verification and checksum took some time.
Okay, i stand corrected.
Or is there somewhere I could download a trustworthy bootstrap?
Who's crazy enough to share 397 GB compressed data? Wait, that would be me:
tmp.loyce.club/bootstrap.tar.gz (this file is scheduled to be deleted in 30 days). This includes
blocks and
chainstate, both updated until today. I had to figure out
parallel compression to speed it up.

Did you actually create bootstrap.dat (see
https://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/q/10381) file or just compress Bitcoin Core directory?
