Can't say I have ever felt much frustration with git related to working on multiple branches merged together at the same time and having trouble associating fixups with their respective changes.
Never really got the UI frustrations people claim around git in general to be honest, are some of the parameters and sub commands a bit badly named, sure. But the overall workflow is solid and works on a simple data structure that I can easily wrap my head around.
I honestly wouldn't even know where to begin trying jj in such a way that it would show off something it can do better without completely revamping the way I think about source control to that extremely weird jj model of working on multiple branches at the same time in the same work tree.
