I don't think this is a valid take. Conventions or standardizations are adopted voluntarily by each team, and they are certainly not a trait of a tool. Complaining about gitflow as if it's a trait of Git is like complaining that Java is hard because you need to use camelCase.
Also, there is nothing particularly complex or hard with gitflow. You branch out, and you merge.
Well to be clear, this was not supposed to be a jab at gitflow, or me complaining specifically about gitflow. I merely used "gitflow" as an example of a set of conventions and standardizations that comes nicely packaged as one big set of conventions.
But there's nothing wrong with gitflow. I was just saying - it are not set in stone rules you must follow religiously. If you're using it and it seems more practical to adapt the flow for your own use-case, don't worry it'd be considered wrong to not stick strictly to it
