ZFS for Dummies
I’m on the other end of the spectrum. I like knowing the flags and settings I use to create the pools.
For snapshots and replication take a look at sanoid (https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid).

Automatic container snapshots? cv4pve or zfs for a small homelab?
I use a combo of PBS and ZFS with Sanoid. The ZFS snapshots are nice because you define it all in a config file with frequent, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly snaps retained however you want. Importantly I use that on the root pool as well as my data pools. With PBS I have a custom retention config and have it backing up VMs and LXCs every couple hours. The PBS dedupe functionality makes it possible to keep full backups going back ages with minimal storage consumption, just the changed blocks. PBS is running inside a VM yes, but it’s storage is on another pool.

New to ZFS, what layout to choose for 4x20TB drives?
No, it's written by the developer of Sanoid and Syncoid. The foremost open source ZFS snapshotting tool. He contributes on this sub all the time.
- Python Port of 600 Line Bash Script: rsync-time-machine.py for Rsync Backups
- Ask HN: Why isn't BTRFS the default FS in home-oriented Linux distributions?
-
Way to extract/see what TrueNAS does behind the GUI?
If you’re looking for snapshot and sync management check out sanoid/ syncoid. Jim’s a mod on r/zfs if you need any help but it’s pretty straight forward. https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid
- Have you made ZFS volumes yourself and did any of them experience data corruption?

Setup a backup system if you haven’t done it yet
There also is sanoid https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid/ for zfs and btrfs users
-
Do I need zsys or are there alternatives?
You probably do want regular automated snapshots, even if not of specific datasets. I'd recommend my own tool Sanoid for that: https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid/ ; you can configure it to snapshot the datasets you want snapshotted in the ways you want them snapshotted and nothing else.

Minimum ZFS delegated permissions for Syncoid
The section at the bottom seems to go into your question in pretty good detail, but there’s also an item about this in the Sanoid/Syncoid wiki here: https://github.com/jimsalterjrs/sanoid/wiki/Syncoid.

Is It Good Practice to Back Up Data Sets Manually on Cold Storage Externals?
I recommend you to get familiar with https://github.com/psy0rz/zfs_autobackup/wiki first and then use the configuration you are happy with in my script.

Backup Solution With Details About Deleted Files
I have a small home server running Ubuntu Server with a ZFS file system. To back up my files and use snapshots, I am currently using zfs-autobackup, which is easy to set up and works really well for ZFS. However, zfs-autobackup does not provide any information on files or folders that have been created, updated, or deleted from previous backups. While I am not too concerned about newly created or updated files, I would like to know which files have been deleted compared to the previous backup. Ideally, I would like to be able to see which files have been deleted before the backup takes place, so I can recover any unwanted deletions before it's too late.

Proxmox Backup Server Storage Analysis
I just went back to sanoid. I have also looked at zfs-autobackup and might give that a try. I've been combining sanoid/syncoid with this script to clean up snapshots

Simple bash script for sending incremental snapshots daily
If you want it to work really well in all circumstances, it WILL get complex. I tried to keep the code as readable as i could though. There where many refactors. Check it out: https://github.com/psy0rz/zfs_autobackup
