As a dev I don't mind Jira that much (I try to use it the most basic way possible) but I often get remarks, especially during daily scrum meetings, that I don't update my tickets enough.

Well OK but at that point it is kind of redundant with DSMs anyway ... but I guess it fulfills product owners micro-management fantasy land.

One thing that we've built[1] is a way to hook a Branch to a story (by including the story ID in the branch name, which also starts it) which causes all of the commits on the branch to feed into the ticket and allows you to use Pull Requests and Merges to change the state (i.e. "Open Pull Request -> Move to Ready for Review).

Ticket update overhead sucks.
