GitLab Developer Evangelist here

GitLab flow is much closer to trunk based development than git flow is. While no one "flow" works for everyone, I think that we are clearly in agreement that the simpler you can make your workflow, the better. The problem is some companies and organizations can't get all the way to trunk-based development based on their own regulatory needs or the type of software they are producing.

That's why we think GitLab flow is a great way to balance both - in fact in the other linked blog post [1] we mention that GitLab flow should allow for CD from either branches or tags. From the main branch would then basically be the same as trunk based development, yes?
