SystemD bashing aside :p Talos is pretty awesome for setting up clusters. At home I just run talos with matchbox for PXE bootstrapping it works like a charm. Been really easy to maintain too. I normally just update matchbox and then reset a machine at a time with talos ctl for a clean install. It's something very reassuring with completely reset your machines so you know you could reinstall or replace them easily.

Granted just used in a home setting running smaller workloads for backups, private projects, git etc.
