Opus is the best. Anyone still using mp3s in 2023 is living in the past. Some users can still hear a difference between 256kbit/s mp3 audio and uncompressed audio while Opus reaches transparency at about 120kbit/s.

In the realm of compression transparency is when the compressed medium is indistinguishable from the source audio by a human

Under 100 kbps it sounds significantly better. I have decided that i dont want to choose on the least shitty lossy option tho, when i can have flac.
