Object modeling is definitely not the easiest thing in the world, but for complex problem domains, it can be what makes or breaks being able to continuously push a project forward. For simple RESTful todo apps, I'd definitely say you could get away without objects. But if I was to build a GitLab clone, it would be incredibly difficult to model such a complex problem domain without using a domain model.
