Is anyone else having problems with the zfs AUR packages? Specifically, zfs-dkms?
I found that applying the patch you linked to did fix things for version 2.1.6. I posted a patch for the AUR package here if you are interested. Just beware that version 2.1.6 of ZFS does not officially support kernel versions greater than 5.19, so I'm just using this patch as a temporary hack until that issue gets fixed.

Can't create archlinux iso with zfs support
# This installs ZFS from the AUR by default. I now use archzfs. It must be setup first. # https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/wiki paru -S archiso zfs-dkms zfs-utils qemu edk2-ovmf

Just want to add, I didn't have any of these problems using archzfs instead of the AUR packages.

arch zfs-dkms: distutils pacakge is deprecated
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/zfs-linux and archzfs.com both get you back to https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/wiki - have a look at the maintainers name: minextu. So both, the AUR as well as the pacman repo, contain both the very same packages as their storage backend is the same.

Not ever used DKMS before and trying to understand
Since it's a full kernel why are there issues like this https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/issues/393? Why would it matter that upstream kernel is newer than archzfs package, how would that break anything?

No passphrase prompt when trying to boot zfs encrypted root from grub
Which packages are you using? Initcpio hook in AUR zfs-utils doesn't support encrypted root, use archzfs repo.

zfs-utils and kernel upgrades
I watch the aur/zfs-dkms comments and check in on the archzfs github/issues.

Is Zstd viable for long-term archiving?
No, my information is not outdated. Whether you are getting a package from AUR or from some unofficial repo that you add to your standard repositories doesn't matter. It is still unoffial and if you look at the actual packages in that archzfs repository you will see that the only packages in there are the kernels: https://github.com/archzfs/archzfs/tree/master/packages

Systemd-journal missing when /var on separate ZFS dataset
I tried reading zfs-utils mkinitcpio/hooks/zfs, and it looks like it mounts child datasets of root and legacy datasets only.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing zfs-dkms-aur-pkg and archzfs you can also consider the following projects:
compsize - btrfs: find compression type/ratio on a file or set of files
xxHash - Extremely fast non-cryptographic hash algorithm
zfs - OpenZFS on Linux and FreeBSD
systemd - The systemd System and Service Manager
zfsbootmenu - ZFS Bootloader for root-on-ZFS systems with support for snapshots and native full disk encryption
