Perhaps. But there's an angle here which is there's a VC goldrush of GraphQL ecosystem solutions, many of which (IMO) probably aren't good ideas. So there's a lot of marketing push towards solutions which represent many of the negatives the post I was replying to highlighted.

I think GraphQL actually _is_ the right tool for many of the jobs people are using it for (API layer for 1st party clients), but they're often using it poorly due to many of these tools having slick APIs that let you be productive alarmingly quickly -- you only feel the pain much later.




Could you elaborate on the ideas you think are no good?
