It's an opinionated vertical platform; if you run into an edge case, bug, or functionality you don't like, you are have to open a discussion Github and wait for a new release to fix or change things. The devs are very responsive, but the same as any open source tool, it's their project.
It perhaps depends on how much customization you want to do - GPUs and drivers, custom CNI, very specific disk settings. I've had more trouble with bare metal systems with varied hardware vs their supported cloud platforms, which are approved and tested.I'm pretty positive toward Talos but if you stray from the happy path, by choice or accident, it can become challenging technically. And then you have sunk costs around choosing this platform and how hard it would be to restart from scratch.
