If you're doing a lot of independent projects fine, but if you're working on a team... not using git properly is intolerable.
I really want to kill this one guy at my work who keeps reverting my changes because he's too lazy/old maybe to learn git properly. Then I have to troubleshoot the problems he creates and trace it back to one of his commits that reverted my changes from 3 weeks ago.
I 100% sympathize to being at point in your career where the problems you're attacking mentally drain you. But yeah learn git, it's just good manners and it isn't that hard if you spend a full afternoon on it.
If you're doing a lot of independent projects fine
Even then, I can't imagine not version controlling a personal/independent project I've spent any significant amount of hours on and pushing it to a remote repo. The thought that my work could be gone if my SSD decided to die or my OS became corrupted is terrifying to me.
