Linux Mint 22 released, but unfortunately they have removed ZFS from the installer. They aren't the first to remove it, but they say it had few users and it was a lot of work to maintain. It's a disappointing trend in some distros to remove it from the installer, given how well it works and how useful its features are. Plus it's been nice having the same filesystem supported on Linux and FreeBSD natively without fuse.
