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?

My team practices rebasing instead of merging, but generally our tasks are pretty separate so conflicts are uncommon. The ones that we do have are not that big.

However I am anticipating more of them now that we're changing build systems
