Difference between Z28 and SS?

Okay after a bit of a Google search I'm still somewhat confused. What was the difference in the Z28 and the SS and why is the Z28 considered better (or so it seems from reading on here a lot). I was under the impression that the SS was Chevy's top car for a particular model. I hope this doesn't start an argument I just really am curious. Sorry if this is in the wrong place wasn't exactly sure where to put this lol. It sort of goes along with 5th Gen because everyone keeps talking about possible Z28 etc.

I hate to admit it as a man but I'm not amazing with cars most Ive done if put a lift on my first car which was a jeep. My current vehicle a Silverado runs like a champ at 100k miles so havnt had to do much work except oil, air filter, etc.
