I agree with this.
We have Content Access + ACL installed on Drupal 9. We set it up back on Drupal 8. I am not sure if ACL is required. The documentation makes it sound optional. Are you saying @LpSolit that ACL isn't actively "doing" anything for Content Access? In other words, would it be safe for me to remove ACL? If not, is there some migration path from ACL to the Flexi Access module you mentioned?
Thanks for the issue/patch!

ACL adds the capability to add access control lists to nodes. This lets provides a resolution of user (as opposed to role). If you don't need to control access by user, you don't need ACL. It is correct that there is no upgrade of Flexiaccess to Drupal 8/9/10. A parch will be acted upon.
thanks for the clarification @gisle, much appreciated, and thanks for the work :)
@gisle that sounds good
will those of who so require user-based access to continue using ACL along side Content Access if this dependency is removed?

There is now at least a dev-release of ACL for Drupal 10, making the integration with ACL. A stable release 2.0.0 of this module has been released, with support for ACL integration. I need to think this through and I am postponing this issue.
Thanks @gisle! I've been working back and forth with @salvis of ACL for a number of months, I believe he is committed to a new 2.x stable branch for ACL, which support D10. If I hear more about when this might happen, I will report back.

I definitely use the per-node user permission setting a lot, so thanks for continuing to keep it integrated here!
FWIW, I am using it in D10 with latest 2.x release of ACL without issue
