I pushed my team to use trunk based development. We did cherry-picks from trunk to release branches for a couple years with no issues. Since then, I've written a GitHub action that automates the cherry-picks based on tickets in the commit messages.
But even before the automation, it drastically improved our dev processes.
We weren't on Git Flow exactly, but it was a bastardized version of it.
Having used TBD successfully for like 5-6 years now. I can't imagine using Git Flow.
