Flexbox generally tends to be great for a single row/column layout, grid excels at multicolumn/row (especially considering subgrid)

One of the most useful features of grid that replaces flexbox, in my experience, is auto-fit and auto-fill, which are great for "card" style layouts. You can use flexbox for these, but the treatment of wrapping items in non-full rows was always a point of frustration for me. This is even better if you can utilize subgrid to align the card contents.
