I've used btrfs for about two years and in that time it completely destroyed my filesystem and almost lost data. Not trusting it again.

Realistically, that's a basic requirement for any filesystem. I've not had a filesystem do that in my two plus decades of linux usage. That means I'm just not using it. Restored to ZFS from backup and couldn't be happier. ZFS works; is extraordinarily stable; and hasn't lost data for me yet.
