Why did Prisma pivot to this? It sounded to me that offering a ready-to-go GraphQL API ala Firebase was a great idea and could certainly turn good profits.

Maybe.

We observed that people migrated off as soon as the applications went into production or were serious, as the database<->api approach did not actually give them all the flexibility they wanted.

(This was 3 years ago, the players that stayed in that market or entered later, of course learned from that and adapted. So I hear they are making their users happy. As are we as an ORM.)
