It makes a little more sense when you consider the wider graphql ecosystem, like Apollo or Relay, which normalize all data received and keep your UI up to date automatically. In that light, graphql-the-ecosystem has solved a big part of frontend state management. With graphql and react hooks, I have found no need for redux anymore for typical CRUD needs.

That's what I was kind of thinking, but Apollo is also in the same graph. Seems a bit odd to me.
