I 100% agree. My goto is «hibernate makes simple things easier and hard things harder». JDBC can be a little bare-bones so I prefer something like JDBI.

How does hibernate make hard thing harder? Can't you just use the `@SQLSelect` or `@SQLInsert` annotation along with SQL?

I have no idea how those annotations work and how I can map them to the object I want.
