Yes, misinterpreted. Refer: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22807146
Sorry, but I still don't get what you're trying to say - I've read the comment you linked to, and I understand it as an implication that OData is problematic somehow.
In another comment in reponse to someone complaining about OData, you also said:
"Had the same sentiments. They take good step forward and then chose OData (bummer)"
Stil scratching my head about what I'm misinterpreting here.
where is GraphQL v/s OData above?
Not sure if I've misinterpreted your comment then?
The GP asked if these were GraphQL APIs, then you said:
"OData. That’ll surely take them far within developers. Maybe SAP brainwashed devs, who are willing to bear any level complexity SAP throws out"
and also:
"Why position “zero SAP knowledge required” and then throw odata in?"
But I've also worked with both OData and GraphQL at lot, and I don't understand your beef with OData, and certainly don't get your claim that it's more complex than GrahpQL. IMO, OData is quite a lot simpler than GraphQL, and I actually prefer it.
