The 2nd or 3rd most commercially important Linux distro has been using ZFS since 2016.

I understand the argument "Oracle might do something", plus spooky magic fingers and creepy noises, all too well. Except it's not actually an argument. It might be best described as a boogeyman, sent to frighten little children into not running ZFS.
My point was: I think it's time for you to get over sleeping with the light on.
In 2000, we called this FUD when Microsoft did this. In 2024, we should know better, even when you're fronting for the FSF or the SFC.
