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?

It was an add on for my Roomba. I should have mentioned that in my case I’m using Unraid, so I’m limited to community maintained docker containers. I’m sure there’s a way to do it through docker in Unraid, but it was above my skill level.
