PSA: you can now use yescrypt for your password hash
The shadow package just got updated and it includes support for using yescrypt as the hashing method for passwords of user accounts. I think PAM and libxcrypt already supported yescrypt but shadow got support for it in version 4.10 although this release never ended up in the arch repos for some reason.

Do you track ghost/unowned files?
Use systemd-homed for regular users. This means I don't need to change /etc/{group,passwd,...}. This also means that by default I don't have a password set for the root user, but I can bind mount/var/etc/shadow` automatically. The main issue is that subids are broken but we gonna have a solution soon.

Debian unstable pushed Linux PAM 1.4.0, which enables bcrypt password hashing for /etc/shadow
https://github.com/shadow-maint/shadow/pull/303 is a pull request for yescrypt support.
