No idea about zfs support on macOS, that would be cool.

I have this stack exchange thread bookmarked and ive always been able to mount HFS+ drives on Linux using it.[1] Not the most stable thing in the world but generally fine as long as you're careful about mounting/unmounting properly.

Besides that exfat is probably the way to go. I know it isn't ideal but it works.

That could work , but actually I was trying to move away from hfs+ looking for something better and reliable.

I had a big crush with hfs+ and when I was digging into the specs I was shocked to discover how unreliable and easy to kill it can be .

That's valid, I have managed to bork an HFS+ drive so can attest to its drawbacks.

I'd be interested to know if you find a more stable solution

Since I have now a drive with corrupted file-name indexes, I’ll have to write a tool at some point that can fix that and would prevent that happening in the future.

Last time I’ve checked I didn’t find a proper open sourced reliable tool to fix the issue.
