I found thst ZFS to be very simple to understand, everything is controlled by just two commands. Datasets are huge win over partitions which seem like such a weird relic of the past once you have tried datasets. Fairly confident you can grasp ZFS in a hour or 2, you can even make a zfs pool from files to mess around with.

I never found a good non-tutorial introduction into ZFS concepts. Do you know any? By non-tutorial, I mean something that doesn’t focus on teaching you the command-line tooling. Like you can explain to someone how Git works conceptually in detail, without having to mention any Git commands and having them exercise some Git workflow hands-on.
