   Beware, Ubuntu are dropping ZFS. That's something that's annoyed me as that's now ruled out future upgrades

      Totally, I had to build it from source to get the latest. Also, why I chose 24.04

      The only article I found with those keywords is that they are/were considering dropping ZFS /boot support in GRUB. If that is the case, they aren't removing ZFS support for non-boot drives.

      Check out proxmox. Debian base with Debian apt repos available for standard stuff, with ZFS built into their kernels. Easy to install. And, if you insist on running TrueNAS (or whatever) just stash it in a container or KVM box.

      (Edited to add: I forgot! ZFS on root available from the installer -- encrypted even if that's your jam.)

         Nice! Ta.

      Do you mean it's just dropping support for booting off ZFS?
