OpenZFS bug reports for native encryption
12 Feb 2024, https://www.phoronix.com/news/OpenZFS-Encrypt-Corrupt and https://github.com/openzfs/openzfs-docs/issues/494
> A new ticket has been opened for OpenZFS as well in proposing to add warnings against using ZFS native encryption and the send/receive support in production environments.
"Among experienced zfs users and developers, it's conventional wisdom that zfs native encryption is not suitable for production usage, particularly when combined with snapshotting and zfs send/recv. There is a long standing data corruption issue with many firsthand user reports...Additionally, if you join #zfs or #zfsonlinux on freenode and mention that you're having an issue with zfs native encryption, you'll be met with advice from developers that zfs native encryption is simply not reliable."

In OpenZFS and Btrfs, everyone was just guessing
I'm a little sad to see this. I've been using ZFS on my PCs for years with minimal issue and significant benefits. [1] I've even contributed [2]. And I remain a huge fan.
I don't believe that "everyone is just guessing". There are some pretty knowledgeable folk that work on this.
[1] I've triggered some corruption in snapshots on an encrypted pool. No permanent problems resulted and no data was lost.
[2] I provided a very minor documentation fix that was encouraged and promptly merged. https://github.com/openzfs/openzfs-docs/pull/472

I switched from macOS to Linux after 15 years of Apple
- Don't give up to early and switch distro, if something does not work - try to do your research first and then stick to your choice
For everyone who's interested, I ended up using Artix Linux (Arch, no systemd) with encrypted ZFS on boot and KDE as desktop environment, and I'm pretty happy so far. Resources I recommend are:
