I had ZFS on a Mac from Apple for a short amount of time during one of the betas :( I think TimeMachine was going to be based on it but they pulled out.

FYI there is a third-party effort for making OpenZFS usable on macOS.

https://openzfsonosx.org/

I used it for a while but unfortunately since they are not many people working on this and they are not working on it full time it can take them a good while from a new version of macOS is released until OpenZFS is usable with that version of macOS. This was certainly the case a while ago and why I stopped using OpenZFS on macOS and went back to only using ZFS on FreeBSD and Linux instead of additionally using it on macOS. So with my Mac computers I only use APFS.
