Cons
Con Beta interface is confusing for first-timers
The interface is very opinionated (this is a good thing). But it is not obvious how to map user's own GTD variant onto the one the author has in mind. Maybe after it is in production, there will be better on-boarding.
Con No native apps
Con In Beta (development)
Con Free version limited to 20 folders
Con Android app has annoying notifications
Whenever the app fails a background sync action for any reason (server issues, lack of internet connection, etc.), a notification appears.
Con Good as a starting point
Toodledo is a good starting point, but is essentially the same as an Excel spreadsheet where you have to build your workflow via the saved searches.
