Workshop is loving terrible, anybody who is telling you its good is probably loving lying, my entire experience with it and gmod is absolutely horrible.
The subscription system us bad, just bad. Addons fail to download most of the time and then there is the damn file restrictions.
There is size restrictions too, and those are an even bigger pain in the ass.
What's the worst part? If the owner of the addon, deletes their addons, they also get deleted from your folders! Everyone would completely like to have a favorite addon wiped from existence because the creator had a hissy fit and pulled them all off the workshop. Bullstuff, replace subscription with Download and everything would be better.
And now let me get started on how well organized the damn thing is...its not! Its a giant cluster forget of dis-organized stuff.
There is no category system that works properly, even the filters break all the time, and then there's the search function.... boy oh boy how could they have messed up a basic search function? By having it break all the time like the filters, and sometimes searching only by the most specific type of keyword.
TLDR;Its an absurd mess that nobody should use, if anything they should recycle the workshop into something that lets you just download instead of the god awful subscription system.
