With EF the app just spins up the whole DB from scratch which is great for onboarding or when you just needed a new laptop etc. Also EF is fine as long as you know what you're doing, or at least pay attention to what you're doing.

I use grate for migrations. I prefer a more manual, hands on approach to that as well.
