I believe the first version of this required the metadata to be stored on the ZeroFS server, making HA kinda hard.

This has changed now that if I stop the server and create a new instance with the same configuration file it'll pickup the existing metadata from the bucket?

Metadata has always been in the bucket itself.

For HA, there's now a "replicated mode" if you want automatic failover:

The HA certainly makes this more of an alternative to JuiceFS now.

Would need something like HAProxy to correctly handle failover for NFS though?
