As a senior dev having worked with REST and GraphQL API's at scale, I'm afraid I must disagree.
I feel most people's negative opinions on GraphQL are mainly due to their own lack of familiarity and expertise on the subject. They simply don't want to RTFM.
When used properly and competently, the DX buffs far outweigh a traditional REST API.
