Did I played it too passively here. Opponent is completely new for me and never saw him on zoom tables before and I have played 150k hands there.
Since he was 3 barrels us and betting 70% on the river I was giving him a set that grows up to full house later but I couldn't fold for sure

With the Ace OTT would just keep calling as well.

It is okay. I wouldn't criticize anyone raising flop with the stone cold nuts either. It is very deceptive. But I prefer calling because that is what I do with mediocre hands (like AK) here.

Depends on the villain, but most of the time I would also just call OTF (I would play the hand like i would play other good/medium hands)

On second thoughts, a "good/medium" hands is AK with the K♥: or better. That is a 1.5x pot donk. One would be playing "guess villains hand", which is usually beyond analysis versus maniacal players. You'd be on your own with much worse than AKh.

Nice hand and I think you played it well. Maybe a little tight, but still well played.

You flop the nuts and villain donks very big. I would raise him here and hope he will get crazy with set, 2 pair or weaker flush. As played I would just call down because the board pairs. Overall you played this well.
