It's relatively easy, and yet powerful. Before that I had MDADM + LVM + dm-crypt + ext4, which also worked but all the layers got me into a headache.

Automated snapshots are super easy and fast. Also easy to access if you deleted a file, you don't have to restore the whole snapshot, you can just cp from the hidden .zfs/ folder.

I run it on 6x 8TB disk for a couple of years now. I run it in a raidz2, which means up to 2 disk can die. Would I use it on a single disk on a Desktop? Probably not.
