How often do you have to resolve merge conflicts? (feddit.de)

Recently I've experienced a significant increase in merge conflicts at the company I'm currently working at (we hired a couple of junior data scientists and some are not that familiar with git)

Even though those merge conflicts can be a little tedious to resolve, I realized that I personally started to enjoy it - especially using fugitive. Haven't had many conflicts in a while, so almost forgot about Gdiffsplit and how awesome that plugin is...

Now I'm wondering, how often do you have to resolve (more or less complex) merge conflicts?

I have to resolve them way more than I should. We have internal devs and external devs and there is a lot of treading on toes. For any conflict that isn't super obvious (90% are) I just ask the two devs involved to resolve it together, in a sensible way that keeps the unit tests working.
