Does Flexbox eliminate the usage of ul or ol on navbars or menus ?

Since you can now make menus and nav bars using just normal divs.

What is the best practice?

"Best practice" is to use the HTML to logically group the content. Generally "div" is a generic last resort, and the newer semantic containers (like "section", "article", "aside") are preferred to convey a sense of the content's purpose.

And an "ol" or "ul" is still a good choice for any kind of list, with CSS giving it the desired appearance.
