I find the flexbox syntax terrible and confusing, and the fact that they created a bunch of shortcuts that encompass several properties at once makes things even worse. Every time I want to use flexbox, I have to refer to the documentation. The result is that I use flexbox once for the main layout, and then tend to use other mechanisms in order to position small elements, menu items etc. even though flexbox would do the job perfectly. I wish it was intuitive to me, so I could use it quickly and without turning my css code into a mess.
