If I am not mistaken the tradeoff is losing add-ons but being able to install other services.

So... what is your experience? Are add-ons useful/common for your use case?

I used a ton of AddOns, really practical because they also embed themselves easily into the rest of Home Assistant. I would go for the HA OS. But I also do wish there was a AddOn to install random docker images.
