[WH40k] Is Nurgle actually a good guy?

So I know this has been talked about alot but wonder whats the actual truth and what is pro/anti-nurgle propaganda?

Most chaos gods seem to have some obvious drawbacks:
Tzeentch will get bored of you and stab you in the back, followers of Slaanesh will eventually be consumed by their own hunger for more, and Khorne will propably add you sooner than later to his collection of skulls.

But Nurgle? Sure you will get all kinds of diseases but if you endure them(and that this is his domain: Endurance in the face of despair) you are rewarded with eternal bliss.
My understanding is that followers of Nurgle transcended despair and suffering by accepting the universal truth of Entropy.

So why shouldn't you become a follower of Nurgle? Whats the catch?

I don't think you can attribute a good guy/bad guy tag to any of the Chaos Gods, especially not Nurgle. While they are horrifically destructive creatures, they are constructed beings that embody a small range of emotions - they are more limited in the ways they can think than you or I, and don't really have the capacity to grow or change what and how they behave.

Also, the reason no sane person would join Nurgle is because of how your instinctual response to his corruption is CANNOT BE, NO RUN AWAY CANNOT BE, and y'know, the horrific pain as fist sized lumps of pus are building in your absomen while you start to hallucinate from the fever. One of Nurgle's moves to get Mortarion and the Death Guard to join was to basically torture them with disease untill they pledged their souls to him.
