FreeBSD is worth using for native ZFS alone. BTRFS doesn't even come close.

It’s all OpenZFS now, same as Linux lmao.

Yes and no. OpenZFS on Linux still isn't as seamless and most distros still don't make it easy to do ZFS on root. Its definitely gotten better though.

I don't see any reason to use traditional ZFS on root when ZFSBootMenu is easier and better, also comparable to BSD's boot menus.

Is there a linux distro that makes the setup of zfsbootmenu easy? I found it to be quite a bit of work.

It's still out-of-tree though, isn't it?
