Let's admit it - GraphQL is NOT simple-and-simply an easy replacement to REST.
I see it's advantages of having auto-documentation for each API. Thumbs up here.
Having said that, the amount of hoops one has to jump before completely adopting it - makes it 'meh'. There are lot of things : cache (clien-and-server), n+1, apollo (why?), deeply nested queries, schema stitching. The amount of patch work one needs to learn is not worth it.
