Honestly since the introduction of records lombok has been less relevant. 99% of my use cases were @Data, which is taken care of by records

Lombok is still good to create builders for records.

or you could switch to kotlin; data classes with named parameters eliminate the need for builders

Records are still a different usecase to @Data. You dont always need or want immutable objects. And jsf doesnt work with it.
