I can vouch for how good it works. Using it on my personal laptop.

I tried ZFS-on-linux with Ubuntu 21.10 and it ate my data (ZFS panics when accessing certain files). Sure, Ubuntu does have a habit of using unstable kernels, but I was still disappointed. It should be stable at this point.

That corruption was caused by a patch that Ubuntu created themselves, it was never in upstream. ZFS on any other platform would be OK.

I've never tried Ubuntu, but zfs has been rock solid on Fedora, Arch and Debian for me. Whatever the issue that hit you was, I hope recent versions of Ubuntu/zfs have fixed it.
